A Flake fell on the Berry Bush
Another – on the Porch
A Half a Dozen hugged the glass
And made the window grin

A few went out to coat the Mountains
Then went to freeze the Lake
I Imagined were they diamonds
What Earrings could be

The branches dressed, on Tall Trees
The Little Girl had fun
The Moonlight put on her shades
The Stars – spangles tossed

The Cool Air brought blissful Violins
And soaked them in the Joy
The Arctic nodded in Agree
And continued the gala
