Snow

White powdery substance

It feels like

A soft sensation

What a delight

 

Childhood

I used to play

In the snow

Why don’t I anymore?

I don’t know

 

Growing older

A blessing and curse

I yearn for more

But as a child

I was never spiritually poor

 

Life

Never take it for granted

Like the snow

It will be here one day

But gone the next
