Snow
White crisp, forever somewhere
Falls down with me gently
Layers me with warmth
An icy cloak
Fall down with me
comfort me
through the night
I remember
Crisp footsteps
As a child walks
Chilly breaths taken
And exhaled
Fall down with me
Comfort me
Until morning
I remember
Icy toes and noses
A new sled
Down an icy path
And back again
Fall down with me
Comfort me
Until I sleep
I remember
Left with memories
Of a past child
No home now
Only snow
Fall down with me
Comfort me
Until the end
I remember
