"a snowflake is winter's butterfly ..."
poet - unknown
I am a child of Winter and have an infinity with snow. So, of course I wish
and wait for those first snowflakes to fly. So, delicate and fragile, each one
different. I wish for a Christmas full of family and love but all my family
are dwelling above. So, I wish the memories will caress my soul Christmas
Day. I wish for peace in the world, for climate warming to be slowed down.
I wish for all people to put down their hate and revenge and replace it with
acceptance and understanding. Because after all, we cannot know what
others are experiencing. Giving a kind word of kindness cost you nothing
and could be the gift needed. I wish for God's blessing in all that I do,
my writing, my art, my photography and anything I seek. I wish for the
end of racism of all kinds. I wish for warm shelter for the homeless this
winter, and for soup kitchens to find the food that they need for the poor.
I wish to be able to accomplish my New Year resolutions this time, I will
re-write last years, they have not changed ...
snow falls filigree
blowing in drifts on the street
the day I was born
