The halo of light
enfolding my daughter and me
moments after her birth;
my hand cupping crystal water,
life rejoicing in life. . .
The hairless crown
of my father’s lifeless head
lying on a satin pillow;
the ultimate nonsequitor…
Cleansing fire
turning bad memories to ash;
lying helpless in the bottom of a dying year. . .
Immersing the resurrection plant in water;
unfolding life.
Pagan celebration
of beginning.
