December Snow

I wonder what it would be like…

December without the winter snow.

The way one snowflake would land on my glove,

And quickly disappear like a magical trick.

Where did it go?

But it is magic. Isn't it?

How can we pretend like ice falling from the sky

Should be normal? Stacking on our sidewalks,

Frosting our streets and just worrying a bit.

It is a bit worrying but why should we worry.

This is magic from the earth.

Telling us we are still alive and maybe…

The world is still spinning. You see…

That is the magic of the December snow,

From the earth to me.
