A New Beginning

Snow
Falling
Like feathers
So soft and white
Lying on the ground
Covering old footprints
Muddied paths best forgotten
Replaced by the  beauty of now
A clean slate for you to walk upon
A new world that awaits your tomorrow

Egad! A poem dealing with snow that isn't negative. Very beautiful, Lainie. I was just thinking this morning of writing a poem called, "White." I mean, like, everything white. I would also use the Etheree. What could be more deadly, frozen. Maybe I will change my mind. Love,Dave
