“Stillness and Quiet”

by Valerie DuBay

You would think you would hear it
because it is such a presence

Having a certain beauty, it curls around,
lightly touching 

It Can be fierce – doing exactly what it wants … obliterating everything 

But not today, at least just yet

Soft, intimate, even warm, in its way

Snow
