Soft snow whirls about
The ever so delicate snowflakes kiss my skin
My body, soul, and mind hibernates
My breath slows
Completely still I lay
All I can dream about is this wonderful snow
The snow that is alive and young
Beautifully unique
Never quite the same
Quiet
Such silence that one could hear the laughter of the children in the distance
The enormity of it all is breath taking
A lovely scene
Sitting under the trees of wisdom and intelligence
I look around
Seeing the panoramic view
A haven of beauty
My life is now slowly slipping away
Drifting along with the snow
How lucky I am
To leave this world in such a magnificent way
In my last second I smile
One lonesome tear roles down my cheek
A wave of relief and peace washes over
Silence
