painted with grains of sand – v5

hills alive in morning

painted with grains of sand

dipped in winter light

pure sparkle, diamonds

on every filament, fiber,

on every blade of grass

facets of ice crystals

twinkling as I drive beside

holding God’s light, as a prism,

sparks of living color, glinting

fingers of Jack’s paint strokes

dipped, cast, in frozen white

hills alive in sunlight

shimmering, the fields afire

morning just begun, waking

illumined within

filaments of sparkle

painted before the sun

the fields were alive with frost this morning

on NH Route 107 in Epsom, NH, Southbound,

with many vistas of white over the reeds and grain stalks, as
