Fire and Ice -- Sun Dogs in the Sky

When I drove to work this morning it was below zero (real temperature) and the wind chill made it feel really worse!  It was crunchy cold.  The sun was brilliant in the sky.  Winter sun bright!  Big, big sun, lots of vapors in the air.  Big cold. Big Light.  Then all of sudden there is this rainbow in the sky --- well it's not a rainbow, it's a sun dog.  An amazing full, amazing colored sun dog rainbow in the frigid morning.  It was beautiful...the sky was twinkling, sizzling, radiating.  That hot hot sun so far away, the artic cold and whatever combination that needs to occur did.  A big gift on the first day of winter.  A sweet way to be rewarded on the way to work.  Fire, ice, sun dogs, and winter.  The solstice light of the evening before turned into the radiant beauty of the dawn.  Just like the poem, cherishing the light of the morning dawn.
