The Blizzard

The Blizzard

Ava Froble ‘17

All the world’s a blizzard,

And all the men and women merely snowflakes,

Not one is exactly alike,

Varying in its own intricacy and magnificence,

Its journey first starts in the clouds,

Oblivious to the world around them and down below,

Only to slip sway from the sheltering clouds very slow,

A case of clinging curiosity overwhelms the snowflakes,

And they fall faster and faster accelerating down to Earth,

The wind picks up sending the Snowflakes on an unexpected detour,

Lost and unsure, the Snowflakes quarrel,

Arguing and squabbling furiously,

Time passes by and they start to lose their delicate patterns,

Melting down to the Earth their beauty vanishes.
