My Poetry

"Spring's Snow"

I know many people don't like

The snow that falls in spring

Or the cold reminder of winter

That it's light, soft flakes do bring.

But snow on flowers speaks to me

I see their colors crisp and clear.

The snow adds to the canvas a gentle touch

Even though spring is already here.

It reminds me how strong life can be

Peeking from under the coverlet light.

Assuredly Spring will send her warmth

To peel back the blanket of white.

It lasts but moments, and then its gone

To the earth the snow does flow.

And the flowers get a precious drink

That's provided by Spring's sweet snow.
