As One Little Snowflake

As one little snowflake does float down so gently Then rests on the pavement so frozen and bare, It dwells all-alone through the depths of December And toils through the hardship for no one does care. Awaiting the springtime to melt in the sunlight To turn into water and run to a stream, For then it will flow to a river and ocean And then shall feel wanted and part of a dream. A sense of belonging to join in a union And then form the waves that shall roll to the shore, Whilst movingin motion will glisten like diamonds And yet it must wait for the winter to thaw. So there it must rest on the pavement unnoticed Just watching the people each day passing by, Just longing for friendship it's not much to ask for Yet nobody stops where the snowflake does lie.
