Wonder
If snowflakes
prioritize landings
best spot -
line a branch with
their
friends
icing
perfection
dread
falling into mouths
gaped holes,
warm tongues
instant
death
plunged into
pool
crystallized
ice chill
swirled onto
asphalt
pulverized
by trucks
converted to
dirty slush
lacy free
fall
fate
If I were a snowflake, I think I'd want to settle in the shade, as part of a big drift, so I can last a little longer, or become a part of a child's first snowman.

DeleteI wonder where a snowflake's ideal landing place is. Probably not on my tongue!
