The snow...
Falling softly all around
all is quiet
muffled.
Ahhhh, the silence is it's own music
blessed absence
of nuisance
and noise.
All is quiet...
All is white...
I walk slowly
breathing deeply
watching the different shades of white
swirl at my feet
and in the distance
but then there is something-
someone walking towards me-
another pink, cold nose
smelling this crisp, clear air
under a fuzzy hood.
Oh! It's you!
I've been waiting.
Two warm, gloved hands
embrace the shapes
they know so well,
as we walk through the winter
together.

this was a wonderful poem. I love the snow, especially at night, when you are walking allong, and you look straight up, or as straight as you can without getting snow in your eyes, and you watch it swirl and fall all arround you. Wonderful sight, wonderful memories your poem inspred. Thanks for entering my contest. Merry christmas and good luck!
