When the Snow Melts

When the snow is melting
There are shapes on the snow
They are all not the same
Some shapes look like footprints
Others the shape or paws prints
these different shapes are seen


Where fresh snow had spread
No one ever walks this path
the snow is very very deep
So just out of no where shapes
the prints appeared from no where
Upon the freshly deep snow
