St. Lucy (patron of the blind)

when you admired my eyes,

I imagined them out of my body.


they were blossoms.

I almost lost them

in the snow.


they were light

on a golden plate.


bright and blinking, they will

help us through the shortest

day of the year.


there is just enough darkness

for a carnival to whirl into motion.
