One winter day something will shine out from an everyday object

Marv and Nancy Hiles | January 2011 (Vol. XXIV, No. 1)

One winter day
something will shine out
from an everyday object
and the darkness will flood with light.
Something we have seen
a thousand times
suddenly becomes
the sentinel of
another world.
