Snow
21st Century
Snow
Crystal water falls
mesmerizing the eyes
enveloping the mind
Soon it's all around
no sounds can be heard
A train in the distant air
breaks the ice
The flow begins and again
the pour is bountiful and unmerciful
and fills the ground with purified white
untouched by the hands of human kind
A buried soul could rest forever
relishing in the warmth of snow covered eyelashes
the heart could beat forever in dreams
The sun the enemy and yet an old friend
drinks in the beauty and the fear
and fades into the night
