The Sun burst ripe and wanting, a flare lit and streamed across the sky, leaving streaks of rainbows hailing down upon the children, wide-eyed in wonderment standing still, mouths wide open - catching snowflakes. |

This is a very cute poem...visual as well. I never have caught a snowflake in my mouth yet, but if it snows...you bet I am gonna try. |

Not knowing the punchline, I missed the innocence, as this so eloquently spoke: "wide-eyed in wonderment standing still, mouths wide open - catching snowflakes." (damn-I'd-love-to-have-that-back) off to e-bay in search of a hymen! Two'll get ya one I find it, too. sheesh. |
