Snow

Falling fiercely
only to melt away,
passing by the window sills, knocking on the doors,
longing to be inside, begging to be with us.
No door is welcoming, windows tight shut
she drops with a heavy heart on the portal.
The whitest of white, the lightest of all,
she vanishes quietly taking the white with her.

A rather long, snowy afternoon is to be blamed for these words..:)
