STRAWBERRIES IN THE SNOW

And if a strawberry in the snow

was a gift between us

it might mean we'd answered

our own questions, discovered

an infinity, and found

the red-throated sustenance 

we've searched so 

long for. Watch now, 

as I hold the crimson fruit 

at the wet edges of our lips

and see how it sings

against the whiteness of 

another pure-hearted winter.
