Snow Fall

It falls so freely, covering branches, leaves, tops of cars and everything breathing scatters

You leave me cold without color and when I open my eyes what once had color is now black and white but yet still not void of beauty

You have made things fragile and if stepped upon what's left will be blackened from the memory of where I've walked

Still looking up, I wait 

A clear chilled breeze blows past my ear and I feel you coming, free falling

As you hit the tops of my shoulders I am filled with your pain 

A pain that I volunteer myself to take so the memory of its beauty and wonder is never forgotten  

I am cold, wet, shivering with fatigue 

 The darkness found me and has set in, all light has gone

Its time for me to step into warmth, and a blanket of rest...

Good Night
