Heidi Sands Poet Free verse

Winter wonderland in spring

The fruit smoothie spun on the smoothie machine,
as I looked out the window at large snowflakes falling to the ground
I watched, as I was led into a peaceful trance
No thoughts to weigh me down, a light moment lifting my heart
Later, I went outside where the snow had turned to small flakes
They were like tiny pebbles bouncing on the grass
                 - A winter wonderland in spring -
