The Avalanche
Quietly they slept
Quietly the snow fell
Quietly the trees swayed
Slowly the snow got higher against the tiny window
Slowly the wind caused the pines to dance
Slowly the mountain watched the storm blow in
Quickly the drifts covered the cabin
Quickly the wind responded to the mountains request
Quickly the trees moved out of the way of the snow
Silently the mountain shook her shoulders
Silently the snow slid down her back
Silently the cabin disappeared from the mountain
