Embers and Snowflakes
EMBERS and SNOWFLAKES
Wood may turn to coal
through ages, stepping stages.
Timber coal burnt to
embers glowing hot, sparkle,
or splinters burst in luster.
Cloud droplets resting
on saturated air mass
through super cooling,
may freeze on dust particles,
forming snowflakes: Ice crystals.
Charred fire-hot embers!
Fragment from fiery fire.
Chilled icy snowflakes
Too hot, too cold, two extremes.
Embers spark, snowflakes glisten.
