~~**~~
“It all comes down to you,”
(My Muse tugs at my ear.)
“It all comes down to if you hear
The words I whisper in thin air.”

“It all comes down to you –
To understand what’s true;
To pay it forth, and not ignore
The voice that speaks it clear.”

“It all comes down to you --
In the end, you know that’s true.
They come and go, like winter’s snow;
But sometimes drift into a poem."

“Snowflakes melt in warmth of hand
So like my words without your pen.
Write them down while they are new
In the end, it’s down to you.”
~~**~~

Sophie is wise indeed.....I think I may just have found a new desk poem. Every once in a while when one really impresses me, I'll print it out and lay it in front of my computer monitor at work, so I will see it over and over....I put 'em there one at a time, and for no set time -- quality is the only criterion.
