Gently Falling

As the snow falls,

From the moonlit sky.

Gently...

Through the moonlit sky.

Stars of crystal,

Falling through the sky.

Falling...

As it darkened.

As the skeletal trees sway in the dark,

Light on, then off.

Lights...

Skeletal swaying trees in the dark.

Fluttering and falling,

Flakes of crystal.

Smoothly...

Resting against the comforting white blanket.
