A warmth breathes out of her. She hath not been

To blow into life’s flower again.”

Through the blizzard snow unseen,
All unharmed by hail of lead,
With a step like snow so light,
Showered in myriad pearls of snow.
Crowned in wreath of roses white,
Christ leads onward as they go.”

scars of dried snot;wrists and knees garnished with impetigo.”
