P. 12
Observing a snowball
As it rolls on its path
It’s trivial to guess
Exercising one’s math:
How many rotations
Did it probably make
To get to the present
Since starting as a flake?
More important to tell
From what it has amassed
Is the rate at which it
Picked things up in the past;
And thereby assuming
It continues to move
One can predict its size
In any future groove.
Card front, unrolled.
