New Snow Night
By Barbara Njaa, Nikiski
Bathed in beauty,
Washed in wonder —
We walk in the moonlit night.
Silver light gleams,
On cascading snow —
A spruce bough springs to the light.
Pricked ears alert
Feet padding soft
My dog sifts shadow and bright
Washed in wonder,
Steps silent and slow
We walk in the white bright night
