how lucky am I?
today I found the golden ticket
just waiting for me in my mailbox.

“It was a very beautiful thing, this Golden Ticket, having been made, so it seemed, from a sheet of pure gold hammered out almost to the thinness of paper. On one side of it, printed by some clever method in jet-black letters, was the invitation itself—from Mr. Wonka.”

every moment.
after experiencing
every kind of spring/fall/winter weather front
in the span of a single whirlwind of a day
there is new light
in the early morning
with
a quiet dusting of snow on the ground
clouds in the sky
streaks of blue
and
a moon hanging high
we’ll try again.
