No Two Alike
In the sky, where dreams take flight,
Each snowflake falls, a unique sight.
No two the same, in the vast winter's night,
Each a masterpiece, a delicate delight.
Tiny dancers in the moon's soft glow,
With patterns no one else can know.
They twirl and spin, in the air so light,
On a journey to the ground, a silent flight.
From the clouds, they begin their tale,
Each with a design, so intricate, so frail.
A miracle of nature, a crystalline sprite,
Dancing alone, in the winter's white.
On my palm, one lands with grace,
Its beauty fleeting, in time and space.
A moment of magic, then it takes flight,
Melting away, out of sight.
For in this world of frost and ice,
Each snowflake's a wonder, a rolling dice.
In the cold winter air, they shine so bright,
No two alike, in the starry night.
