Upon a snow flake a word is centre Caught within an exhaled Breath Revealed a moment Of winters tale, Each now like glass semi transparent Every breath reveals another But soon to white they turn A story Lost, Absent, Hidden From view, the little one Ran, scarpered as fast as little legs can go, Mother, Father, Sister, & Brother, Wait child what is the rush, "A winters tale" "I breathed upon it" But the moment faded, the word was lost They went out side As gentle flakes feel, She breathed upon a single tear of snow As before the word glistened, "Do you see" "Do you believe" Astonishment, Wonder, Confusion Mouths ajar at what eyes just seen, As before the moment passed Word had faded as lost In the fresh linen of snow, Each was ready, Inhaled breath Exhaled, Words appeared, glistening within Mothers word was "The" Father exhaled, "Meaning" My brother sneezed upon one "Of" Mandy "Ate one" Then realised, exhaled on passing ones, "Christmas" I waited, as many fell upon My face, I exhaled "Is" But as we breathed none did change, Is what, then Goofy barked, dog breath greeted Flakes Falling Slowly, The word brought a smile to all, "Family" They were still upon the blanket of white, Each picked the chosen flake, It was glass, as if the word etched, Upon the mantle piece each sat, "The Meaning Of Christmas Is Family" We all smiled at the winters tale, We each exhaled a breath and a story was told..

Winters Tale
Upon a snow flake a word is centre Caught within an exhaled Breath Revealed a moment Of winters tale, Each now like glass semi transparent Every breath reveals another But soon to white they turn A story Lost, Absent, Hidden From view, the little one Ran, scarpered as fast as little legs can go, Mother, Father, Sister, & Brother, Wait child what is the rush, "A winters tale" "I breathed upon it" But the moment faded, the word was lost They went out side As gentle flakes feel, She breathed upon a single tear of snow As before the word glistened, "Do you see" "Do you believe" Astonishment, Wonder, Confusion Mouths ajar at what eyes just seen, As before the moment passed Word had faded as lost In the fresh linen of snow, Each was ready, Inhaled breath Exhaled, Words appeared, glistening within Mothers word was "The" Father exhaled, "Meaning" My brother sneezed upon one "Of" Mandy "Ate one" Then realised, exhaled on passing ones, "Christmas" I waited, as many fell upon My face, I exhaled "Is" But as we breathed none did change, Is what, then Goofy barked, dog breath greeted Flakes Falling Slowly, The word brought a smile to all, "Family" They were still upon the blanket of white, Each picked the chosen flake, It was glass, as if the word etched, Upon the mantle piece each sat, "The Meaning Of Christmas Is Family" We all smiled at the winters tale, We each exhaled a breath and a story was told..
