The Music for Saints’ Ears

   The Music for Saints’ Ears

The snow is like two perfect music realms.

It came in perfect purest notes as flakes

All night and now the vision overwhelms.

In dark it manifested white as lakes

Turned first to ice, then covered with true white.

High symphonies first come inside the minds

But then composers let the swirling flight

Come settle on the lake.  Whiteness winds

Around but then those thoughts take over.  Morning comes,

The other realm for snow.  The world is changed.

This means the usual in life succumbs

To genius made of voices rearranged

To gorgeous alien perfection laid

As if the flakes were sounds that God has prayed.
