Snow Dance
February 15, 2010 – 8:29 amWhat is it about freezing snow that makes everything seem more beautiful?
Transcendent reality
Looking out over the yard the other morning I was struck by the intensities of form. Overnight the ugly, half-dead shrubbery was magically transformed into a tapestry of patterns as angles of light danced against the dark mass of dormancy. Studying closely I was in awe of the order of growth. Staccatic branches reached in unison for the sky, alternated like footsteps along path, or twirled to catch the wind. Perhaps they moved to a silent song of light.
Standing still I could almost hear the subtle rhythm of the earth. In that instant, I felt the pull to join the dance or forever remain a spectator. In my heart, I danced.
I’d like to think, had you been there, you would have done the same.
