Christmas Countdown 2014: 6. Snowflake Lament


All cold and sharp,
White and bright,
The crystal of crystals,
All bright in the night.
***
A snowflake is light,
And is clear in the light,
Seamlessly in flight,
But delivers a bite.
***
Unsurpassed beauty,
Comparable to none,
With white crystals,
That are destroyed by the sun.
