Another Poem for "Quadrant"

My poem, "Wherein the Snow is Hid" (whose title comes from the Book of Job) has just been accepted for publication in Quadrant, a prestigious Australian literary and cultural print journal.

The poem, written in five jagged, heterometrical stanzas of slant rhyme, digs deep into the leftover snow of March and, by the final line (whose final word is a play on the québécois word "glace"), rediscovers beauty and love.

Thank you, Les Murray for accepting another of my poems for your wonderful journal!
