Wonderous Snowing

Through its foliage nature reveals art
When it snows see the imagination start
The seasons stand watch for birth and rebirth
Winter's endless sameness snows over earth
Sun sends crystals to shine on our altar
Earth's essential for life is just water
The Sky Siren sings as snow flakes flow
Falling from the seamless skies songs go

"Sparkle Snow": Luminescent, crystalline
designs - never the same

"Snowy Flakes": Millions of different droplets
form in flakes

"Slippery Snowing": Exhilarations of falling
downhill - skiing, sledding, racing, rolling

"Snowman Snow": Rolled up snow with
sticks 'n stones - creations who'll never hurt me

"Snow Homes": Castles, caves and igloos too -
places to touch and go into

"Snow Sculptures": Art to see as something solid -
carved so nice, then turned to ice

"Snow Angels": Spirits of faith and belief -
becoming angels in snow relief -
hopes soar high when celestials fly

Snow is weather that surely stays
Shapes our lives for some of our days
Romantic white on moonlit nights
Life's memories, fantastic sights




Dedicated to Deborah Anne Pitt Abad who could identify different types of snow and Deborah Ann Gaul who loved all of nature

A-ha! Angels showing up for you, my friend! Some day I am sure you will have wings like the words of your poem!

Had you in mind Sam as I pulled this together. My last few poems had angels in them and your passion for faith has influenced it. My Catholic background has me revisiting some concepts. So, thanks for your interest and kind support.
