I have an affinity to snowflakes falling, for I was born in a snow blizzard storm; and in winter it is my name- snow is calling, so, I walk forest paths dressed cozy warm. For I was born in a snow blizzard storm, I love when fragile snowflakes kiss my cheeks; so, I walk forest paths dressed cozy warm, to stand in thought beside still trickling creeks. I love when fragile snowflakes kiss my cheeks, my hair snow draped white like the forest trees; to stand in thought beside still trickling creeks, I am not bothered by the iced cold breeze. My hair snow draped white like the forest trees, I wander seeking a cure for my scarred soul; to stand in thought beside still trickling creeks, for even my loved snow will never make me whole. I wander seeking a cure for my scarred soul, and in winter it is my name- snow is calling; for even my loved snow will never make me whole, I have an affinity to snowflakes falling. _______________________________ November 22, 2020 Poetry/Pantoum/Snowflakes Call My Name Copyright Protected, ID 11-1306-650-22 All Rights Reserved, 2020, Constance La France Written for the Standard contest, Pen a Pantoum sponsor, D.W.
