The White Sheet on Earth
The White Sheet on Earth
Birds, trees and animals run for the shelter
As the snowflakes slowly fall on the ground
The earth becomes wetter and wetter
Among the humans there is merriment all around.
Children run helter-skelter
Watching and feeling the soft touch of falling snow
The grown-ups run inside seeking shelter
Inside is better, that is the all they know.
The earth is covered in white sheet
Yet the sky does not let up
The snow shall soon rise to the level of feet
For some
it is time for a hot coffee cup.
The trees are white
So are the flowers
The whole place is covered with while light
Houses and cars are covered by showers.
Memories are like snowfall
A soft touch on heart and soul
They pierce the mental firewall
The throbbing of heart becomes out of control.
The sun soon comes out of clouds
Melting the snow and memories alike
The roads are filled with teeming crowds
It is back to normal life.
