snow bookends

I returned home from Taos a few days ago. I left snow and returned to snow

It must be winter

Taos in the season of winter is wonderful.

It’s quiet.

It’s slow, with time to sip and sup.

It’s hodeezyeel, Navajo for calm.

It’s soothing.

It’s delicious.

It’s blue sky.

It’s reunion.

From sunrise,

to sunset, it’s glorious.

Thank goodness it’s an annual event.
