Snow

Winter <3

Crystalline spectacle rains from the sky

He walks shrouded by its comforting embrace

He falls into the snow that covers his eyes

Another place

Another time

Snow falling:

A winter pastime

The scarf he owns flows in the ice breeze

A cold that could usually shatter a man to his knees

But today it loves

Today it warms,

No-one has ever needed to warn

The boy that reflects in the snow

Of a mentality embraced centuries ago

The comfort is mutual

The importance is crucial

Snow

Where we all go.

A vista that missed her

But engaged him

All wrapped up in his delicate sin

To natures eloquent chagrin

He gets lost in the winters striking wrath

A beautiful pure dance

His last chance

Leave

His senses say

His mind

Wants him to go the other way

Stay.
