This Snow

. Fluttering Quietly, gracing the ground with their presence. I see joy in every white flake. Can’t you see it too? I’m resisting the urge to tread in deeper waters of thought as they fall faster now, blurring my vision, wrapping me in a delicate cloth, giving me warmth when I know there is none but the cold. It is so wonderful! This is all I see right now, this is my whole environment—this grey sky and these carefully tread prints set in this snow leading up to this angel that I've graced the ground with.

Wonder why this "Form" is not "Shape" as you've made a perfect angel here ... or maybe a Snowman with arms outstretched in welcome ... great imagery both verbal and visual and congratulations to you on your writing being a feature this week here at the Soup!!
