In the dark of the moon
In the dead of winter,
In flying snow,
The world in danger,
Families dying,
War spreading.
I walk the rocky hillsides
throwing clover.
- Wendell Berry

Everyday Is a Good Day
If there are mountains, I look at the mountains;
On rainy days I listen to the rain.
Spring, summer, autumn, winter.
Tomorrow too will be good.
Tonight too will be good.
