The Unfallen Snow

Awaiting the unfallen snow,
I hold my breath, wonder
I’d really like to know.

What has kept you away so long,
Where have you been,
Why have you been gone?

When these questions of snow,
I had thought to ask,
A voice of shadows echoed them back.

The answer so painful,
No words for the why,
So here is the truthful, honest reply.

I left to find my own way,
To find a love of my own,
Make my own mistakes.

I learned something valuable,
From the unfallen snow,
Your past should be, your future road.

Kevin

Kevin, that last line is a jewel.  It finally snowed here today, not much
but well, it's pretty from the inside!

Kevin; How wonderful are your words and this poem flowed with wonder as the snow that never fell!  Hugs, Ellie

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.

Kevin,

This is a great poem. Didn't understand the deeper meaning at first, but maybe that is because I didn't want to understand it? LOL
