Snowballs in the Making

Tarry me not

as falling crystals

fill my facial-space

and I rush in hurried

motions

across a slide of

sidewalk ice

avoiding clusters

of people

also attempting

balancing acts

during this snowstorm

of slush & messy

condition as we

try to decide

to return home or not.

"across a slide of

sidewalk ice"

your short lines work so well for this, has a real feel of thick snow falling

Such a precious comment, JP. We are awaiting another doozer of a rain, ice and snowstorm, so my poem is quite appropriate for the moment. Sure is fun writing, Eh?
