Snow

White powdered snow lying softly on the ground,
covering hard grey surfaces,
the dulled tarmac of that car park.

Drifts form around those lean black towers,
artificial rays of light tumbling down,
into glistening pools of sparkling snow.

Threadbare trees carry tribute to the snowfall,
a smattering of purity upon those spindly branches
they whisper their aches and pains,
echoes in the wind.

Footprints lie there,
set to be examined,
the curious dance of a menagerie.


This has been reformatted, ever so slightly rewritten and most definitely reposted.
