snow

Nature's tidying
up again,
with her blanket
of soft forgiveness.

Like Huck Finn,
she's white washed
my human fence
with her sacred vows
of chastity.

Flaws are hidden
for a night
in silent equality,
while pure delight
of holy communion

melts on my tongue,
and makes me giddy
in the sacraments
of winter.
