Snowflake--By Mary A. Couch--United States

Snowflake

(Etheree)

One

minute

snowflake twirls,

dances with wind,

leaps over oak branch,

pirouettes in brisk breeze,

tumbles down to frigid earth,

and joins its brethren in a pile

of luminous crystalline delight

bringing joy to every child’s waiting heart.
