Mark Nenadov- A Poem

Winter Time

Snow sent here
    from the loving Lord above
is cascading
through the corners
of this sphere
where the cold tickles
the feet of the earth.

Our tribe draws near
to the flickering
    fire—fearfully made
which sends smoke
snaking through the chimney
    up
    up
    up to the shimmering stars.
