Snowflakes gently falling, drifting,
Wrapping all my world in white,
Covering the winter grey,
Making all look clean and bright...
It almost seems that "peace" is falling.
Oh, so quietly it comes,
Making all serene and pure
As the tired earth succumbs.
The beauty of new-fallen snow,
Clothing branch and twig and bough,
Paints a very pretty picture
As it covers nature's brow.
Snowflakes gently falling, drifting,
Wrapping all in fluffy white,
Seem to overcome the "drab"
And for a "season" make things bright.
