a spring snow

[Bill]

a spring snow

 

the Sun was shining brightly

filling the visions we held

with it’s light and promise

Children were playing on the School Grounds

their glee permeating life

 

yet the Snow was falling down

melting before it hit the ground

upon my face

my skin

imitating tears

tears of joy

tears of reverence

tears of gratitude

 

every once in a million or so

one flake would catch hold

of the lash of my eyes

and i would defensively blink

and though i do know

no harm was meant

by this heaven sent wonder

my defense was automatic

 

there was no democratic process here

no vote did i emote

to accept this offer from the skies

yet they kept falling

upon my face

this liquid white lace

of frozen spirit

melting in the presence of the sun

as i have done

so many times

 

a spring snow
