Such a Strange World

Such A Strange World Such a strange world we live in Cold air blowing while the warm sun shines Snowflakes drifting softly to the ground Shining like chips of the purest diamond they cover the ground The sky turns into the deepest of baby blues as the sun rises Making the soft white clouds brighter as they float by White disappears turning grey in the face of winter’s fury The winds blow as the light of the sun dies behind the clouds The soft snowflakes turn to razors as they are whipped by the wind All of the beauty of the earlier world is gone and forgotten Snow dunes and ice mounds bury life as they move across the land Shovels come out under the dim light of amber streetlights Paths shoveled and reshoveled time after time throughout the night The morning comes with its own shade of amber The clouds are gone and the paths are clear The streets have their own beauty and purity The sun shines on the fresh snow, untouched by man Showing that beauty can create chaos Teaching that chaos can create beauty A world of contradictions Such a strange world we live in
