Snowflakes

Mesmerizing flutters and flourishes gracefully blow on the wind drifting, creeping and crawling up and down my back door I see you hit the pane slide a little to the left and kiss another slipping together as your mass melds - swaying as one As if on dancing on ice Together you perform Quick-stepping motion As the crowd thickens or winds abate Tired from your escapade together you settle On the purest white bed Where tomorrows warmth will warm your juices Melting you and allowing you to slip away almost unnoticed you make your exit

EXCELLENT use of personification for the snowflakes. How creative to see them as dancing, swaying and kissing. This is so beautiful, Anna-Marie! Love you and your precious heart, Carolyn

Beautiful personification Anna-Marie, in your poetry! Thanks for your gracious comment on my Raven. And yes the Adam and Eve parallel plays out in my poem, for what is death but an illusion that is swallowed up in victory by the reality of life. Real enought to the dual concept of mind in a natural world, but non the less an illusionary concept. Agape, Moses

Hi Anna-Marie. You got a lot of poetry out of a few snowflakes. Thanks for stopping by to read my poetry. Too bad it was that senseless one that was purely in response to a contest to write as many oxymoronic lines as possible. Love, Joyce
