Snow Angel
In winter's breath, 'neath diamond skies,
Where whispers dance, and cold air lies,
A child's laughter, pure and bright,
Crafts angels in the snow, so white.
Beneath the moon's soft, silver glow,
In fields where icy breezes blow,
A figure forms, with wings outspread,
A snowy bed, an angel's bed.
With hands that shape the winter's lace,
Each feather traced in cold embrace,
In silent joy, the child plays,
Creating dreams in winter's haze.
As stars above in vigil keep,
The snow angel in peaceful sleep,
A memory in winter's hold,
A story through the ages told.
Following is a rendition of the poem.
