When hearts are silenced

The snow came,

again;

and with it came a quiet.

Nowhere to go when that silence comes,

nowhere to run from your thoughts.

Today I went out,

against all the weathermen telling me

not to travel unless I absolutely

had to

but the need to feel snowflakes that stayed on my nose

and eyelashes was too great.



In memory of Blake Edwards,
who died today.
He was the husband of  Dame Julie Andrews for
forty one years.
