"White smoke rising up in the valley, against the light,
slowly taking animal forms, with a dark background of wooded hills
behind."--Thomas Merton, December 13, 1960.
white smoke rises up
santa clause jumps down into
conjoined merriment
letting the smoke clear
in distant skies-- allows dreams
to capture more joy
beneath the scalped sky
lie tiny angels singing
sleep will come in time
Kate Lamberg
