"Snowflakes" by Robert Hsiung

am 
dreaming 
of snow on a 
bright autumn day -- 
sparkling star-shaped eight-pointed flakes 
dancing fluttering flying falling in the 
wind like autumn leaves, covering 
the dark earth underneath 
lifting me from the chilly recess of my 
fatigue and forgetfulness to the days when I 
was young and carefree skiing down steep snowy slopes in 
freezing cold and blinding speed, now in old 
age watching my two little grandsons 
in my backyard tumbling 
down sparkling white mounds. 
How transformative is the beauty 
that is not for me alone. How sublime is 
the sweet silence that 
rings in the 
heart 
for all !
