Snowing

January 18, 20241 min read

What about fresh fallen snow

Takes you places of long time ago

Unknown reasons quiets all things

Inside snowfall silence that sings

 

Stillness returns from an era when

The world less manic simpler then

A white gray swirl and a dull sky

Along with quiet filling the eye

 

New snow invites opposites that

We’re drawn seduced bi-polar tack

The freezing crisp air beckons us out

While drawn in by a fire that’s stout

 

The chill of the freeze bracing delight

Like the warmth of flannel at night

Hard labor shoveling heavy wet snow

Calling forth slumber beside embers’ glow

 

As winter greets with chilled arctic bursts

It pulls forth the image of tropical thirst

Snowfall is nature’s treasure

Silent snow heartfelt pleasure

 

What was the impact the last time you experienced purity and stark of fresh snow and cold?

What does the memory bring up for you?

I have always been a seeker, always looking for the answers to what seekers ponder. I can remember Dr. Maxwell Maltz and Psychocybernetics; Dr. Carl Rogers On Becoming a Person. Moving through my legal training and practicing law the focus was always about people and how to better their lives. All that searching, reading, studying and introspective work culminated in this collection of daily readings for seekers. My work in the world has progressed from fighting legal cases to mediating divorces to helping people understand the essentials of relationship and collaborating to these poems. How can we collaborate effectively and work with each other in harmony to create the world we seek. How can we mindfully enable this world to become a place that works for all. My prayer is that through introspection using these poems as a guide we can all grow together in making the world the Heaven on Earth we all aspire toward.
