An entire lifetime in a few stanzas. Quite economical and very moving.

Oh the sweet relief of the snowplow! Reminded me of the time a young man , hopelessly besotted with our daughter & clearly slightly mad, arrived at the door of our really rural home in the depths of a raging blizzard, aching to visit our Skye. He was a fright: head to toe covered in snow, eyelashes frozen into tiny icicles, his nose red as rudolphs. i quickly whisked him in & peered through the wintry squall to decipher how the heck he had gotten here ... afterall he lived two towns away (about forty miles) & we couldn't even get out our lane. Trevor saw my question & only said 'i rode my bike & tried to follow the snowplow!'
