-White Magic-

 

Tilt your head back, close your eyes

lift your chin up to the sky

and feel your skin tighten against the cold.

 

Falling softly, a thousand gentle kisses

land upon your face.  Cool heaven floats

silently to earth.

 

Whiter than lilies, more rare than diamonds

each flake a unique, perfect individual.

No two are ever alike.

 

Catch them on your tongue and feel the tiny sparks

of ice as they melt away to nothing,

becoming a part of you.

 

Now do you believe in magic?
