New Ghosts in the Snow


Standing among the flakes as the first snow of the year fell,
looking up as thousands of newly hatched ghosts took their first flight.

As well I was able, I gathered the ideas they whispered.

The opening lines for a new novel on one.
Six verses for a picture book on others.
The promise of good fortune from the ones that touched upon my head.

As always, thank you snow.
