it comes down
from the heavens
or the sky
and blankets
the earth
or ground
with an evenness,
a fairness,
a peacefulness,
and we forget all our mistakes,
all the paths we took,
and we can’t see or
remember the ones
others carved.
the snow comes down,
down, down, down,
from the heavens
to the earth
or from the sky
unto the ground
snow, snow
you wonderful thing
you make all things even
and give us one chance
to fix them
