The Soundless Invaders
By Dee Rusin, Kenai
A fragile flake
Came floating down
It was alone
As it hit the ground
Without a sound
More lacy shapes
Swirled around
Swishing seductively
All over town
Their beauty enticed
As they hit the ground
Without a sound
Soon joining were many
No one could count
Covering everything
Left lying about
Without a sound
These fragile droplets
Formed a tight group
Before you knew it
There was a large troop
Without a sound
Next thing that came
You just had to stay
While the troublesome
Gang held you at bay
Without a sound
So the flakes
That looked pretty
Now covered the city
Like soundless invaders
Oh what a pity
Without a sound
