A Prayer to White

I call to White, clean and cold as soft new snow,
clear as sweet spring water, shining light of goodness
and kindness. Ice you are, a bridge crossing raging
rapids, providing safe passage over deadly water.
Ice you are, preserving the good, sheltering us
through the storm. Ice you are, pure and still, safe as
the womb, persistent as the glacier, bright as
the midnight sun. You cleanse what has become unclean,
you purge what has become impure, you liberate
the false and the corrupt from their blight, by their work
and their will they become free, and new, and restored
to their best selves. Yours is the gift of a clear heart.
