Snowflakes

Snowflakes float Whimsically on the wind Drift Soar Fall Gentle merging of Terrestrial elements Seeking Cosmic order of Patterned perfection Children frolic with Frosty Making snowmen and Snow angels Snowflakes melt Swept aside by Busy wipers on Sliding cars on Slippery roads With dizzy drivers Seeking stars and Sparkling moonbeams On lonely roads In lonely lives Where snowflakes fall

One of the most poignant 'Imagery' poems I have had the pleasure of reading in a long time. You certainly capture the magical world of Snowflakes. All the best with your book.
