Kiss Of Snowflake ~ Quatern
A snowflake kisses windowpane; she sees it as a joyous tear, for coming up their country lane is fam'ly ... absent most all year.
Their house is decked out festively; and snowflakes kiss their windowpanes, reminding her of Christmas trees with sparkling crystal candy canes.
Her eyes alight in sweet refrain when gathered 'round mom's harpsichord, as snowflakes kiss the windowpanes they sing His songs so long adored;
and soon, she's tucked snug as a bug in bed, though wakefulness remains. She sneaks a peek at good-bye hugs; while snowflakes kiss her windowpanes.
