"Snowflakes are winter's butterflies."

                                       Quote Unknown

 

I am thankful for lovely snowflakes falling, and for divine winter scenes enthralling; for all the tiny singing birds in the cold, oh, wish my warm hands could each enfold. I love the wind making the snow dance, all those flakes that drift, twirl, and prance; each one perfection, each one unique, each one part of God's creation mystique. I like walking as those falling snowflakes kiss, it brings me tranquility, serenity and bliss; and after the snowfall the drooping trees drip, as snow gathered on their branches starts to slip.

Snowflakes are kisses from heaven, from a loved one no longer here, a sign to say I love you, a snowflake is a frozen tear. Wish you well in the contest Constance.
