"A Mid-April Snowfall"
Poem of the Day - 4/17/20
Audio Version of Today's Poem
Looking outside
It seems more like January
Than mid-April
More than a dusting of snow
Yet some melts upon impact
White and unblemished by footprints
For now
I only gaze from my window
Afraid to venture outdoors
Because, alas, I don't have my boots
Still, I ask you,
Do you want to build a snowman?
"I have no idea where I am going; I do not see the road ahead of me. I cannot know for certain where it will end. Nor do I really know myself...But I believe that the desire to please you does in fact please you. And I hope that I have that desire in all that I am doing. And I know that if I do this, you will lead me by the right road though I may know nothing about it. Therefore will I trust you always..." -Thomas Merton
I have come to fall in love with teaching in Catholic schools. What are YOU in love with?...
