Snow Fall

As the snow falls I watch and listen

I try and listen to each flake land in the distance

So much power they each have when they accumulate in numbers

As the snow falls I watch and listen

I enjoy the beauty for what it is and not think of the traffic and inconvenience in the morning

Just like life when piled high we can shovel and maneuver our way to our conclusions

As the snow falls I watch and listen

So much chaos when the wind picks up without warning

I can't see the outlines of the yard that has become buried only to see a canvas now untouched

As the snow falls I watch and listen

Snow has its purpose and its season and it presents a new outlook on life

Regardless of a dusting or a blizzard the snow doesn't last and it certainly doesn't stay

As the snow falls I watch and listen

Can you hear the snowflakes land in the distance?
