It spirals down to the ground
And lands with utter softness.
On a still and silent night
You just might be able to hear it.

Several more come flying down
It sounds like a symphony of silence,
The dance of a thousand zephyrs of wind.
The white circles, then dives down
And finally lands softly to caress the ground.

A tickle on the face
A gentle stroke in the heart
An acknowledgement of arrival
One's Spirit reaches out.

It is the touch of a memory of life;
Every moment of everyday
Every second lives as memory
If not in my mind then in yours.

A flurry of memories
A soft but persistent fall of snowflakes,
All of time is contained within,
It is but memory; it is but time.

Nice imagery! And nice to meet you, CD. Snowflakes and memories abound at this time of year.
I like this, do you have more?
