The Snow

is a torrent of fluffy down
morphing from windy
white---to soon absorb
the scent of Spring’s caress

then melting into rivulets
of scattering claims
searching for any path

where debris is shunted
aside---surges of moisture
meandering at will.

Bee, Thanks. I really enjoy working on a poem like this, encompassing much in little space---a real challenge. Fun too. Richard

And done with a great eye Richard. Somehow gives a sense of certainty which I really like.

Hello there scratch, and thank you for such encouraging words. Richard ps. we have had such snow and rain falling---like autumn leaves, then scooped and falling once more, until our daydreams are fulfilled.

Thank you so much, scratch. Words are fun under the sun and they scorch and burn ideas into our soul as we contemplate, and not vegetate. Richard
