Frozen flecks pierce and pick
Ice with intricate designs,
Cool and fresh,
Swirls and spirals,
Sustained only in flight,
Melting instantaneously
When touched by rays of light,
Trickled own a frozen branch
Drops and shatters quickly,
Warmth thaws a world of ice
Water takes its place,
No longer silent
Instead a drumming beat,
Carve out the valleys
Leave its name behind,
Extinguish strong perfumes
Emanating from flower beds,
Leave a temporary trace,
Cleanse the world of sorrow,
Sadness,
And
Stress,
Replace it with happiness,
Build a bubbling rainbow,
Never a consistent plan,
Unexpected,
But predictable,
A sudden freeze,
The ice returns,
The sorrow is sustained,
To be met by sunlight once again
