A Poetic Light on Snow

Crunchy crystals of sparkling perfection,
Melting into a velvety slurry on the tip of the tongue.
As white as freshly sugared marshmallows,
And just as sweet:
It's just a different sort of sweetness.

The hands turning the page,
To the next chapter,
Of a book called "Time."
Confetti sent from the heavens,
To shower the land in a sensational sprinkle of ice.

Call it imaginary, flavorless, calorie-free ice cream,
A subzero fluffy pillow,
Or the chilliest medium for art.
It can't be everything,
But it can be something. 

Rabbits- The Seasonal Animal

(The opinions expressed here aren't necessarily mine. Or are they?.........)

-What's your favorite thing about each season?
- I love seeing the fluffy bunnies have babies in the spring, the fluffy bunnies stuffing their fluffy faces in the summer, the fluffy bunnies being thrown to their death by fluffy hawks in the fall, and the fluffy bunnies being run over by SUV's and what not in the winter!!!

Prowling

It would not leave her be. Everywhere she went, it followed, like a moth follows a flame-she was that flame, and slowly, she was dying. As time passed, and as its visits became more frequent, she grew weaker, tenser, and more paranoid. Gradually, the paranoia drew its claws into her heart, and soon, into her soul.
When she walked from school, there it was, peering from the confines of a bushy tree, with its one, glaring eye. An eye that seemed to pulsate fear- fear that needed no road map to find its target. Even when she was in the safety of a group, she could still feel the focus of the eye beaming intently upon her very being, as her fibers were slowly being weaved apart.
And even at night, she had no chance of recuperating and acquiring a new aura of energy, for there it was- peering from her window, with that demonic eye, as it raked its ghastly claws back and forth over the glass.
Each scratch was a slash directly to her person; each glare, a bullet into the soul, a bullet so entrenched that nothing could ever get it out.
And one night, with one final scratch, and a final glance, her soul and body said their farewells, for good, and finally she was at peace. She was free.

A Melody Of Doom: The Trickle Of A Water Faucet (Not All That Musical)

Silence.
Except for the trickle of the water faucet
Plink, plunck, plinck, plunck,
A very repetitive cycle.

Again,
Plink, plunck, plinck, plunck.
The sound of plummeting water drops,
Hitting the metallic sink is the only sound.

Plink, plunck, plinck, plunck.
It never stops.
MAKE IT STOP!
It's gotten very mundane and tedious.

On the brink of insanity, or a complete breakdown.
Plink, plunck, plinck, plunck.
It's oblivious to others but itself.
Plink, plunck, plinck, plunck.

Silence?!?!?!

Plunck, plink, plink, ker-plunk.

(Well, at least there's some variation now.)
(Hey! What about an album full of water faucet noises! Huh, right? Never mind, awful idea.....)
