Snow and Ice

I am the snow and ice Cold and brittle yet happy and playful I am the play toy of children but the death of men I am white and translucent to ultraviolence The winter's dance and thunder across the village bringing a happy grace and a sorrowful touch. The white clouds may bring platinum or silver Ouranos may BOOM or he may Trickle.. For that is the way of the snow and Ice It is the sun and it is the moon, it is the ground and it is the sky. They are the same and one only comes out in certain times but when that one does come out ,beware for Ice is beautiful like opium.
