One little snowflake
One little snowflake floating out there
I look through my window in the dark of night
illuminated by my patio light

from one snowflake one could write a book
about snows elements at which I can look
some people say no two flakes alike
a mystery to fathom as I look into the night

A wondrous reality perhaps beyond understanding
as one snowflake touches down on my landing
at its center of speck of stone
enveloped by ice and all alone

with arms out as nature allows
starlike in shape on which I can browse
snowflakes are natures minutiae
to be contemplated night and day

Just one miniature work of the creators hand
an astonishing thing I don’t fully understand
from droplets of water ice crystals form
the elements of nature in a snowstorm

The invisible power that sets in motion
creates the snowflakes from natures lotion
of elements plentiful both large and small
cosmological forces that never stall

our ignorance is rebuked by the snowflakes mystery
the elements of which is winters history
the invisible force of the creators hand
which formed snowflakes on which we stand
