in this dream the snow is falling on birds as white as
while the cold clear sky
swoops down and catches us mid-wing
we swerve up
gliding on polar air
dancing
along the Milky Way
before
tobogganing down to our beds flecked wet and brilliant
2
rise
from bed
ascend
into Christmas Day
luminous
3
a chorus
crossing earth
singing of
one birth
after another
