Notes About The Poem

Snow, My First

Snow, My First 

I laughed all the way. 
It was so cold. 
The man said, eight below with the wind. 
I don’t think I needed to hear that. 
But I was mesmerized by the reality of it. 

Tiny perfect flakes, fell. 
First on the windshield, then you stopped the car. 
We got out. My face to heaven, I knew…
What it was to see miracles, perfect miracles…
Like stars in the sky at night, 
Only these, 
Broad daylight… (Wow!), and touchable.
