Snow — a poem

snow bests rumors of darkening skies

snow made childhood real

snow connects with the past

snow softens the impact

snow conceals

snow promises

snow makes for labyrinths

snow can hurt

snow births angels

snow everywhere

snow tastes of youth

snow is fractal

snow falls

snow cushions footsteps

snow says we were here

snow will snow after us

snow stands for innocence

snow speaks new beginnings to old souls

snow and stars are reality and dreams

snow says dreams are of reality

snow holds endless thoughts to catch

snow has touched the sky

snow heals

but more than that

snow is snow
