Snowflakes in my eyes
Lazy, fluffy, drifting and swirling
Tiny clouds falling in peaceful puffs
Scamper home to envelop in warmth
Hot tea, warm clothes, cozy toes
Close the drapes on the cold
Biting wind, scraping skin
Snow melting to freezing water
Saturating already frozen toes
No warmth on the street
No feeling left in body and soul
Close eyes forever on the cold of world
