Poetry Train: It's Snowing

It’s snowing
words
into my notebook

covering the page
with black
snowfakes.

See the design
they make
on the creamy

ground of this
paper? Each one
is unique.

I tip my head back
and let a couple
land on my tongue.

They melt into me.

This is lovely Linda. The image of a snowflake as words fill your book is great. Love it.

If it was like that, I'd want a blizzard every day.

Phew, that sounds like a dangerous game, I hope your students don't copy you!

black snowflakes = Ink, I think!

I loved the images you've used: Black snowflakes on the white pages. Very nice, You've put it in a different way.
