Snow Collisions And Other Religions


The snow comes on the rumblings of mistakes

As alien nature not named but numbing all the same

Comes crashing, colliding by accident in atmospheres

In fear, crystals of silence remind us of the loudness


How unkind ice can be accompanied by snow

Once released to tumble down to mimic giants falling

Blinded by colors not of their making

Time stops but not before the storm unfolds

Takes its toll on the unexpected visitors

Drifting by they pound the ground in homage to refrigeration


Rocks stand their ground for a second and by chance

Turn into sand if aging is permitted in their presence

Snow can be dangerous even at a distance if not respected

Ten foot trees below the timberline are frozen solid

In solace they take their weight for granite in repose


Granted, their seismic temblors can cause earthquakes

When landing on the heart is no mistake

Branches pray in their bankruptcy to winter mysteries

At what cost if they should lose their souls to snow

If this were any other planet other than Earth

Each snowflake would be lost to the significance

Of being worth its weight in gold
