Drifting, falling, floating
Snowflakes.
Crystalline, pure, unblemished,
Each unique in shape, origin and destination.
One blown by the wind,
Over the oceans, to the furthest shores.
One softly blanketing,
The leafless branches of the winter trees.
Yet another, caught, by a curious pup,
Melting, on its tongue.
Some landed together,
Some were lost as sea,
And some were never found,
But each was unique, in shape, origin and destination,
And each followed a different path,
And somewhere, somehow, left its mark.
Together, they make the snowman,
Together, they can make the children laugh,
And together, sooth the old man’s burns,
But, only if they are together,
For apart, they melt in the sun,
Like us, like us, in life.
