A Snowflake Tale
By Michael I. Samulak
 
 
Resting above.
 
Then…
 
Falling free.
 
Criss-crossing through clouds.
 
Waltzing with the wind.
 
A pause.
 
Compelled onward by winter’s constant cold breath.
 
Drifting now on a different course:
 
Yet, somehow the same.
 
Together with fellow voyagers:
 
Twisting,
 
Turning,
 
Tumbling.
 
Down.
 
Down.
 
Down.
 
Until…
 
Landing at last:
 
Creating masterpieces upon the earth.
