Winter Snow

Snowflakes dancing down from above
Gently landing one upon the other
To form a blanket white as the dove

The world now cloaked in robes of ermine
Waits with deafening silence
As throughout the land a new day begins

The rising sun erupts upon the land
Bringing choirs of snow angels
And many a marching snowman band

We quickly record this in our minds diary
For soon with shovel, plow and blower
Each snowflake will be but a memory.
