In those last moments
winter sunset pours golden,
spill of memory.

1/4/23
these still dark mornings
spiteful rain a gloss on ice
then thrum of bloom bright

Morning, 6:25am, 8 degrees, solstice in two days.

To Know the Dark

To go in the dark with a light is to know the light.
To know the dark, go dark. Go without sight,
and find that the dark, too, blooms and sings,
and is traveled by dark feet and dark wings.
~ Wendell Berry

From Wednesday night. I kept thinking that I’d find the perfect poem to go with it, but then realized the December full moon is poetry enough all on its own.

I go to the beach with Crow’s agenda.

Alaska is really doing her thing. First thing this morning, the dog and I spooked a moose in the dark while we were walking. Now this long vivid sunrise.
