Softly breaking
Surrender
Let it all go
And send it all flying
Push it down the river
Until it learns how to
Float away
Past stars
Past eskimos
Into the snow
Angels fall mellow and slow
Light on eyelashes
Light on eyebrows
Light on lips
So light to the touch
Making love
To a winter storm
Going numb
Going slow
Melting down
Into the snow
Into the dirt
Falling
This way and that
Falling in love
With the snow
In winter.
