Unable to sleep, or pray, I standby the window looking outat moonstruck trees a December stormhas bowed with ice.Maple and mountain ash bendunder its glassy weight,their cracked branches falling uponthe frozen snow.The trees themselves, as in winters past,will survive their burdening,broken thrive. And am I less to You,my God, than they?
