wings of snow fallen


wings of snow fallen
on the steps, melting under
a moment of sun

Descending the steps from the Argiro Student Center to the parking lot, I look up when the sun makes a momentary appearance between clouds. The dark wet pavement and angular lines of the stairs and railings contrast beautifully with the soft, curvaceous white snow. And then I notice the tiny rust-red highlights at the base of the white railings, contrasting with the blue sky. Funny how entropy, in the form of rust, appears like a beauty mark on a pristine face.
