Tender snow

Tender snow.

Tender snowflakes fall,
Covering everything in sight.
Creating a winter wonderland of enchantment.
Calm and peaceful, quiet, crispness of air.
Snowball wars, snowmen, snow angels.
Catching snow flakes on your eyelashes.
walking hand in hand down paths untouched,
By any soul.
The romance of red birds perched on branches,
Singing songs for future spring.
Falling in love, feeling alive,.
The hope and wonder of being young at heart.
