The night was strewn

The night was strewn
With snowflakes

Landing tenderly
On the earth already

Blanketed in white.
The flakes were coming

Down furiously swirling
As if some God got

A hold of them and
Shook them down

Like leaves from
An oak tree.

A young girl with
A bright red hat

Skipped on the sidewalk
In this winter wonderland –

Her small tracks
Etched in the snow.
