Poetry by Annushka

Snow Flakes


Swirling snow flakes by my window
beckon me to join their dance:
"Drop the nonsense of your hurries.
Come embrace this blessed chance!

"Come remember all the secrets
you discovered as a child
Traipsing through the woods of wonder
on adventures strange and wild."

Life seems weary,almost pointless,
if we're stuck within a mold;
Marching in an endless rut and
doing things that we are told.

Come let's flee to shrouded hillsides.
Let's make angels in the snow!
With our mouths we'll catch some snow flakes,
smiling with our hearts aglow.
