In the throw of tears

Feeling every kind of sorrow for myself,

Doing the menial task of rinsing out dishes,

Trying to find meaning in my life,

I looked up.

Out the window, snow fell.

Something that usually merits my disdain,

Yet my tears dried.

I found myself smiling, laughing.

I had never seen anything so beautiful,

So meaningful,

So light.

What does it all mean?

Perhaps I’m tired of trying to find meaning.

For onceĀ I want to enjoy the moment,

Savor the delicacies.

Savor the abhorrent snow.

And perhaps, one day,

Live.
