Snowflakes.

by Steven Beesley   Dec 15, 2005


Snowflakes:

So perfect and every one different in their own way.
Nature's artistry still such a mystery?
Beautiful patterns sprinkling in the light.
But only magnified can we see their true splendor.

Hidden to the naked eye,
these magic crystals like works of art.
Short lasting beauty that melts away
with the warmth of the sunlight.

Like small diamonds sparkling and swirling.
Each one is unique, like you and I.
God's gift to us once a year
with all the cold that comes with the snow and ice.

    I really like poems about nature and this one is no exception. I find that the Nature section of Poems and Quotes is where some of the best poems are found. I like writing Love poems and find that I incorporate many nature themes into them. There are a lot of poems in the Love section but there are only a few that really shine where in the nature section I find the opposite – most of them are very good. I enjoyed your poem and hope to read more from you in the future. If you like trees you can read a poem I wrote called – The memory of my shadow. The poem Searching also has a nature theme - I wrote this way too long ago when I was a kid and have thought many times to rewrite it as an adult. But somethings are better left the way they are no matter how badly you wish to change them.
