The lines from "shoveling" to "untouched snow" are such a beautiful portrait of devotion. Love the way they teeter between the mundanities of human and divine relationship. Short, dark days up in Seattle right now. Perfect poem for this season.

I was unfamiliar with Mennies before this - thanks so much for sharing!

This poem has been casually leaning against the walls of my brain ever since I tread it yesterday. Thank you for also introducing me to this poet, and for naming “gentle mundanity,” which is a big part of why I’m so drawn to her words here.
