December 2: William Carlos Williams, "Blizzard," Special Hot Chocolate

Blizzard 

by:  William Carlos Williams

Snow:
years of anger following
hours that float idly down--
the blizzard
drifts its weight
deeper and deeper for three days
or sixty years, eh?  Then
the sun! a clutter of
yellow and blue flakes--
Hairy looking trees stand out
in long alleys
over a wild solitude.
The man turns and there--
his solitary track stretched out
upon the world.

A good poem for tonight, as the snow and wind continue.

Saint Marty is in the mood for some special hot chocolate tonight.
