in my palm
a single snowflake
unique and delicate
sparkling in sunshine
yet melting in loneliness
too magical to vanish
tenderly I surrender
to the fallen snow
for comfort and strength
a tiny snowball now
rolling alongside me
soon more snowflakes
no two alike
as the snowball expands
more friends eager to join
rolling downhill
a snowball
growing with love
by a million little flakes
together living and learning
