Snow In April - Poem by Savita Tyagi
April storm brings a brush of snow.
Heart marvels at it's pure white glow.
Earth has no means to hold on to it
Cycle of season doesn't support it.
But my eyes gather this rare treasure
To make the heart rejoice in pure pleasure.
Sparse snowflakes smash on the ground
Disappear in warm earth; not a trace found.
Bracing the cold I walk out of the door
And raise my hands to catch some snow.
The short lived stars fall upon my hand
Soon to disappear in a fleeting moment.
But not in vain was my child like game for
Spirit subdued through winter was risen again.
