Hold
Everything's covered in white,
as if the pages of an unwanted draft
had been torn
overnight.
The cold air silent until a child
squeals with excitement
at the sight of snow,
as if a rainbow had reached out
beyond its gold
to hold his small, mittened hands;
as if it turned around to show me
here's another blank page,
here's your poem.
