Three degrees,
snow on the drive
the ninth stargazer
lily opened
and there was no
apocalypse—
no horsemen four,
no asteroid,
no anti-Christ.
That made this first
cold day of winter
very, very nice.

Good understatement at that ending, after all those dire details of disaster.
That title might be a bit more provocative, though — something leaning more toward the dark side?
[…] We’ve noticed recent postings of gratitude by Nikki Hardin, Joannie Kervran Stangeland and Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer. […]
Hmmm. Wonder what you will say next year on this day??
