Snowflake

   1/7/02





If I could be a snowflake

Drifting through the air

Caressing all the winds

And fill the world with prayer



I'd be feather light

Very small, but full of might

Tiny dancer dressed in white

Pacifist without a fight



I'd be water on your tongue

Something fresh, something young

Only pure, always void

Sailing fast, an asteroid



So short lived, I don’t care

Cause I make, all of you stair

At the grace you can't obtain

I no longer feel the pain

I'm so small you can't see

That this, is still me



I'd be water on your tongue

Something fresh, something young

Only pure, always void

Sailing fast, an asteroid



So complex, it's beautiful

I know that you will drool

It's a fad! I'm unique

I'm everything you seek

I can dance wile I spin

For everything I win

And I'm cold, like ice cream

I'm almost everybody’s dream

I'm so cool, I've got style

But I'll only last a while

So, no haste

It's just waste



Cause...

I'd be water on your tongue

Something fresh, something young

Only pure, always void

Sailing fast, an asteroid
