Two Snowflakes Two snowflakes met within a cloud In mists of winter‘s space He, a flake of icy white And she, a star of lace The cloud was heavy, winds were strong In dark mid-winter night They both held hands and tried to Stay together in the flight Then tumbling down they lost their grip He kept in sight her face He said, I’ll find you on the ground, My crystal star of lace In dawning hour the sun arose The flake looked near and far Rising with each whispering wisp To find his crystal star And there she was, lit by the sun So delicate and clear Among the millions, only one He wanted to be near Then children came outside to play To build a man of snow She said this is the end for us For I have got to go They wrapped her in a ball of snow Which then became a face She sparkled in the morning light This crystal star of lace He too was packed into the cheek And both remained for days She said what will become of us In sun’s now warming rays He said the sun will melt us both And to the ground we’ll fall But I will not forget your face, The brightest star of all I’ll follow you to nearby streams And into rivers flow I’ll follow you into the sea Wherever you may go One day we’ll rise together in In the haze of summer heat And somewhere in a cloud of white The two of us will meet The winds will send us onward To the place of winter storm You’ll form into a crystal star With frozen heart so warm Above the January earth In gatherings of mist I’ll find you there, my star of lace Just waiting to be kissed Elizabeth Santos |

Liz; I just discovered this magical beauty and fell under it's spell of delightful wonder.... A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails. |
