I love the descriptions of snowfall as ‘water laying still” followed by ‘eating the earth’s echoes.” Beautiful.

Some of my favorite line in anything I’ve written about snow…and that’s a LOT. Thanks Rachael!

“I know those stars

will always replay the

reminder of majesty beyond

this pain-shaken planet.”

These words filled me with hope as I’m feeling so weak under the weight of this pain-shaken planet. Thank you…

Isaiah 40:26 Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these? He who brings out the starry host one by one and calls forth each of them by name. Because of his great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing.

I feel delightfully disoriented by your style. I miss an idea or meaning here and there, but so much comes through that dazzles my heart, I figure I can live with the untidy parts.

Great words, Josh.

“Awe deaf” and “down-shifted” in particular made me pause. Thankful for your work. 👏🏻👏🏻

“Awe-deaf” was a later edit that just added that last 10% of what this poem needed. Thank you so much for reading David!
