the wind as a song
every year i think i come here to say "i love winter."
i really do. it was so windy last night and the snow was
kicking up all around the tops of the trees and houses
i stood at the window upstairs
(which always reminds me of the 6th floor bathroom window at the uchida building at berklee where i used to hide and watch the snow cover the boston rooftops)
and just watched.
my boy was snoring from the other room
the christmas lights were making everything glow
silvery gold and magical
but the only sound the whole world could hear
was a wintery white swelling of wind.
the prezzies are wrapped. yesterday i started baking for the buffy crew.
so much of this season is about warmth and love.
sometimes i start to miss it even before its gone.
one more test to study for then i'm done with my first full year of grad school.
then a break.
proud of who i am and who i've become this year.
grateful to the graces that continue to weave into my life.
happy, heart-full, and excited for every new moment to come.
happy winter, quiet page...
