The First Snow

Tags: , , , , , , , , , ,

The white powdery stuff drizzled down slowly and softly
Touching the ground with no sound or disturbance
But quietly nestled together as they create a breath taking sight
Oh beauty and majestic covering for the earth surface.

This is the first snow fall for this winter…
As I looked, a glimpse of how it use to feelĀ  glides by
My consciousness gradually recalls those wonder feelings
I remembered the sense of wonder…
The awesome sublime feeling evoked by those white fluffy snow.

As we grow older our capacity for wonder tends to diminish
Time, life or something I can’t quite pinpoint…
Seems to steal from us the ability to thoroughly enjoy
The simple wonders life presents us with every day…
Moment by moment we miss the wonder…
The awesomeness, the beauty…

Ah… I was there again…
This first snow somehow melted past my crusted mind
It is magical and full of refreshment…
But I can feel it gradually fads away like a mirage…
A feeling I had, but it’s slipping away…
I thought I had it…

Maybe, just maybe it would resurface again…
Maybe I’m the one drifting away…
Maybe I’m trying too hard…
The moment, ha the moment of the first snow…
I must rest now and relish the wonders…
This first snow brings along…
Ah… how sublime…
