A New Beginning

Snow
It falls
All around me, as I walk
It engulfs me
In its whiteness
The snow
Is a blanket of white
It seems
So soft at times
But other times
It’s a scary
White, death trap
In the midst of a blizzard
Lies a single
Red rose
The sign of a new beginning
Why here,
Why in a scary place,
Where plants never grow,
I shall take this rose
And begin again
But for now I am stuck
In a blanket of
Snow
