Snowman
From the cold heavens you were formed
Unique in every geometric shape
Countless shimmering shapes descended
Then collected to a familiar form
Linked one flake to another
Countless strands like DNA
Strand on strand on strand
until you stood in naked splendour
Strange forces add to your existence
Solid shapes, splendid colours
Forces that shape your character
From crystalline form to familiar old friend
You welcome the cold aching chill
Life`s blood to your soul
Laughter surrounds your existence
Child like shrills of joy
Short lived is your joy
As the enemy arrives in rays from above
Each crystal slowly pulled apart
Each joyful memory soon lost
Then soon no more
Just a memory in some child's eye
Melded to mother natures cycle
Maybe in future to return again
