In Mogadishu, Somalia, I used to see dust on my window but now I see something different: Snow. I never appreciated winter as much as I do this year (my fourth year in Sweden). I think it is because of my children who welcomed the snow with such a joy and fervour. Braås is the town I live.
Through my kitchen window
I watched a beautiful drama
As white flakes started falling
I saw them getting melted
Soon as they kissed the grass
Thawing away
in the heat of the cold
But recovering the loss
As temperatures dropped
Till snow reigned high
AAhh What a beauty
This is no less than a smile
Mirrored in the eyes of Braås
Welcome Winter! Welcome to Braås
snow is a puritanical bath for earth -- cleansing earth and the spirits of men, if only temporarily -- be one with the snow my dear friend -- know heaven's baptism of the soul --I bid you joy,love and peace -- Jon Michael
The purity of snow appeals to true innocence
and the sudden heavy brilliant way it comes down
is one of Nature's great and beautiful dramas.
Enjoy your Winter, Abdi-Noor, my best to you and yours.
