Northeast Winter
Snow flakes - white and serene;
Falling freely everywhere around us,
Molding themselves to the frozen earth,
Forming a white blanket.
No more emerald greens or chestnut browns;
No more red brick houses or paved roads;
Painting everything pure white;
Like a cloud that has descended
Down to us and beckons us outside
To lay our heads upon pillows of soft snow.
