What Melts Snow

Pick and place cut flowers in the snow Beauty blooms in this thin frozen crust Crisp color petals, soft to the touch Scarlet roses there to lay and glow Truths that thrill make hearts blush In early days, don't trust too much Wintry times won't forever stay We are all pure as the driven slush Some say snow gently coats our land Every flake filled with crystal kindness Falling from a cooling cobalt sky This divine dust sprinkled by his hand Yet in each is a radiant ray Facing this season with human hope Flowers in snow won't wilt from fear Which will warm winter woes far away
