Wind and Snow

Small snowflakes sift
Through the cold air
Like ounces of sugar
Swirling everywhere
Wind seems to play around
With the flakes in designs
All the way to the ground
Depending on strength it gets
It may decide to leave drifts
Here, there and everywhere
As the magical movement shifts

This nice poem has helped me forget that raging ice storm that is raging outside this very minute.

Hi Jennifer. It is beautiful and also a lot to contend with. We are getting another foot of snow this week. Thank you for your kind comment. Hugs :)

Hello Heidi ... the thought of icy wind and wind makes me shiver, but our weather has been stifling humid and that's just as bad - thank you Heidi - Lindsay

Hello Heidi, when the wind blows the snowflakes it falls zig zag to the ground. The snow falls in different directions. Hugs.
