I gaze upward
At the dreary sky
Silent and cloudy
In barren branches
Gentle wind moves
Whispers of hope
Flakes of snow
Suddenly emerge
Drifting downward
White dots pierce
This overcast day
Swirling and dancing
Ever so gently
Snowflakes touch
Alighting on me
A gentle caress
Soothing touch
On a tired soul

Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. – Matthew 11:28-29 (NASB)

I call the cold up here in Northern Mn. brutal and the snow softens it especially when there is no wind and it slowly comes down and covers the brutal. Beautiful poem.
I agree that the snow softens the cold winter weather, especially those windless days when you can watch snow slowly drift downward. It reminds me of a snow globe. Thanks for the comment. Blessings.
Awesome message! There is peace and rejuvenation from a gentle snowfall.
So true. There is something soothing about watching snowflakes drift downward from the sky. Blessings.
Beautiful poem, thank you for sharing it. It reminds me that there is a spiritual quality in meditating on the glory of God in the snow. May He bless you today.
I praise God that he continually reaches out to us. May we take time to experience His touch. Thanks for the comment. Blessings.
