Bernard Chan Poet Ottava rima

Kissing Snowflakes

Like ballerinas airdropped from on high, 
Snowflakes pirouette to damask the air, 
Tutued geometries dimpling the sky, 
Veil our stinging eyes with arabesque fair. 
Downy fields we walk, where aureoles tide, 
And white breaths upon your face softly flare. 
As my swooning kiss to your frail smile dips, 
A wayward prism alights upon your lips.

The Snowflake is the most perfect geometric shape and no two are the same as scientifically proved. You have chosen your metaphor so well .. Enjoyed it - I am going to FAVE this ...Maria Bernard Chan January 8, 2018 at 8:41 AM Thank you so much, Maria! Really appreciate your kind words :)
