I read so as to live
if denied, life would be grief
The person who threatens
  is a coward within
  such he seeks to compensate
  his inadequacy which he wears on his skin
Just continue on
And better your health
It is all in your mind
Take care of yourself
Enlighten your day
Put yourself in a better frame of mind
It is simply all up to you
Make your entire outlook on life shine
The moon shone bright
Hearts explode colors tonight
And our colorful love
Turned into a beautiful art.
Coiled tightly
and buzzing with flies,
on the sidewalk
is where it lies.
I stop to admire
the odoriferous tang,
as a bicycle tire
cuts it neatly in twain.

in the quiet of stillness
I can hear a snowflake
gently land
upon my cheek
a flurry of gossamer
frozen lace lilts ~
peacefully
transforming
the ennui
of chilling silence
into a wilderness symphony



thank you to all
for stopping by to read
"The sound of a snowflake"
