Two Things Happened First, there had to be the soft fall tender, beautiful, I thought hello, life… the so very soft, quiet, not at all Kansas like fall of life giving white, of life giving moisture and two things happened… life, and hope hope happens, hope, and more…. Life happens in a snowfall…. Can you see it? crystallized forces of new beginnings…. comprehensible life forces…. all of which can be brushed away, easily with a whisk of broom… don’t be a snowflake… be a moment.

The best poems leave you with something that does not fade, does not grow stale with time. Thanks for this one. "don’t be a snowflake… be a moment." So simple. So clear. So true. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

You just made a third thing happen. It's called expansion...of my library's boundaries. I promise not to be a flake. |

I find this slightly funny, because for an assignment once I had to do a "my life is like..." poem and I compared my life to a snowflake! So maybe I oughta work on that moment thing But this is exquisitely beautiful, and makes me feel light hearted. Thanks. Always, Alyssa - And so it was that time stood still - |

crystallized forces of new beginnings…. comprehensible life forces…. all of which can be brushed away, easily with a whisk of broom… Loved this stanza, Sunshine. A lesson on how we should see important things for what they are and not dismiss them away unknowingly |

Oh Sunshine, this is so beautiful. You brought a little 'sunshine' into my life this morning reading this (though some snow wouldnt hurt either *grin*) Great job! It's not the load that breaks you down, it's the way you carry it. ~ Lena Horne |

So soothing. Very pleasant read Yesterday is ash, tomorrow is smoke; only today does the fire burn. |
