There Was Snow

I got up early, in the dark. I looked outside. And saw a light dusting on my van. Yes, it was like snow in January. Only this is on the side of the year when it never gets that cold. So it was the remains of trees, houses, and all the rest that forest fires burned up and that is the “fog”, our euphemism for haze from the fire. It was still dark, like in January, until later in the morning. And, like in January, it was a day for lights all day long.
