A Crystal of Snow

M. Lucille Ford

A crystal of snow is a wonderful thing

With texture as fine as a butterfly's wing;

With network of atoms like filmy spun lace,

Or petal arrangement of air flower face.

A crystal of snow is a beautiful thing

With the sparkle of drops what to spiders' webs cling

On a bright dewy morn; and the luster of pearl;

Or a diamond gleam on a glistening curl.

A crystal of snow is a curious thing-

With dew of summer - or rain of spring-

And frost of autumn mixed into it all

The flowers of cloudland that earthward do fall.

What is Snow?

Penny Carter

If there are some water drops

    Falling through the air,

And the temperature is low,

     Snow will soon be there.

Every snowflake has six sides.

     Next I'll tell you that

Some of them have pointy ends
