Jar lids pop snow sheets slide pitch pockets snap water kettle groans First light exposes crystalline canvases against frozen glass the stove’s heat melts them away like ice Mandalas All that is beautiful is impermanent. All that is unique lives only once.

Jar lids pop snow sheets slide pitch pockets snap water kettle groans First light exposes crystalline canvases against frozen glass the stove’s heat melts them away like ice Mandalas All that is beautiful is impermanent. All that is unique lives only once.
