Constance La France Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Winter Snow Flower

On a winter day,
             in a sunny spot;
I found a snow flower beautiful and gay,
an unexpected display in a sunny woodland knot.
                        It was so sweet,
a vivid purple delightful treat;
unworried about growing in a cold icy retreat.
      It poked its delicate head through the snow,
             unmindful of winds whispering hello;
                        it really was a lovely show.
The depth of color was quite a display,
             better than any flower store bought;
    leaving snow flower was bittersweet,
              but I knew all winter more would grow.
