Snowflakes
Dancing in the cool breeze,
 an array of white color,
 too beautiful
 and too delicate
 for anyone to touch
 by hand.
 Flying through the air,
 Thousands of white dots
 Pierce the sky
 in mid-morning.
 Past trees standing
 Straight and tall
 with bark covering it
 Like a blanket.
 Leaves scattered
 Around every
 Now and then,
 Most of them
 Dead and forgotten.
 The faded color
 of a lifeless, cold planet
 Spreads around the ground, 
 Causing even the whitest
 of white to look
 Grey.
 Falling briskly through the air,
 the snowflakes spread their own joy.
 Falling from the heavens,
 they land swiftly on
 the ground,
 Filling in brown cracks
 that they had left
 Wide open
 Footprints of animals
 are imprisoned in the snow,
 Still as new as the time
 the animal took that step.
 Until the snow
 Comes 'round again, 
 the footprints keep
 Perfect form in the snow,
 Making mortals gasp in amazement
 at the natural beauty
 that this season brings.
 Tidings of joy,
 as they say,
 Bring the most happiness
 to the land of lost;
 the fading color
 From the land
 Shines brightly
 in the hands of the Christ,
 as he crafts each
 Snowflake beautifully
 and individually,
 the blizzard
 of the flurries
 Creating masterpieces that were long forgotten
 and unpainted by man,
 but could only be painted by God.
 With everything looking dead,
 the snowflakes are the only sign of life,
 Life on the planet,
 Life in the universe,
 Life in the galaxy
 Fluffy like cotton,
 they are soft on the skin,
 but can bring deadly stings
 of cold if used wrongly.
 Smiles come out
 on the faces of
 People who think
 that they are
 Unloved by everyone.
 The truth lies in the mystery
 of the snowflakes,
 Telling people that they are most adored
 by Him,
 the Savior of the world.
 Like snowflakes,
 He creates masterpieces so delicate
 were if you touched it,
 it would shatter into a million pieces,
 and you wouldn't be able to put it back together again,
 While He would.
 Dancing in the cold breeze,
 an array of white color,
 Create snowflakes,
 too beautiful,
 and too delicate
 For anyone to touch
 by hand.
