Big snowfall during the night. Big for Puget Sound country. It's not light yet, but the blanket softens everything. I woke up thinking of Liam Rector's poem "In Snow", and David Broza's beautiful rendition [click here]. I found a performance clip—unfortunately not the whole song, but it gives a sweet taste. Ah Liam, we miss ye, lad.
1/3/2012 Renewing TimeI've been through this new year thing sixty times now, and never once have I felt the slightest shift or hitch in the smooth rollout—the countdown hits zero, the ball lands, the numbers flip—under the clever costume I am still you, here. Everything has changed; nothing has changed—the blessing and the curse of time in one steady swirl, ever balanced on a single point—poised, drawing this breath. Ahhhh.
