a single, vaporous particle of water
adheres to another as they collide in the cobalt sky.
the crisp air gently freezes the molecules together
a unique and beautiful crystalline sculpture.
as each snowflake dusts solemnly ground ward
brushing against one another as lovers dance
sticking, forming larger, fluffier cotton balls of snow
the ground stretches to meet this porcelain creation
as the weight of the falling snow
captures the earth in a straight-jacket of white
the snow buckles and slides downhill
rapidly growing
accumulating more snow
gaining speed
becoming a giant ball
of unmitigated destruction
nature's fury
once slight, now
rampaging
as it is with a single, simple lie
