A Silent Symphony
27.Jan.04
I hear soft snow falling
slipping softly silently
yet building to a crescendo
at the edge of my awareness
I strain to hear the snow song
as air deflected by the flakes
makes whispers of quiet pleasure
caressed by the marvellous matrix
flocks loop and roll in waves of sound
vertical and horizontal snow
that gathers to the ground
and now to drift over hedge and home
seeking a perfect partner
all in a masterful mating game
armies of snowflakes dance and dazzle
then join in harmony
and float ….to earth
look…
their beauty is the land
softened by their silent symphony
