Strange Weather
Before Hearing Seamus Heaney at Galeri Caernarfon - Friday, April 8th 2005

Snow turned to sun,
sun turned to snow.
Crunching like crystal,
the chrisms hailed down
a libation of manna;
tulips lapped at the flakes
with saffron tipped tongues,
communicants
licking up crumbs
while snow turned to sun,
sun turned to snow.
