for the first time today
I notice the snow
outside
it glistens white
and gold from the sun
everything is covered,
blanketed with white
pureness
my lonely drunk soul
is comforted and for a while I
stare
the snow has made me clean,
a fresh start
I feel new
and I tell the world
I can take you on today
