Brightness of a New Snow

 Nikki Cottam

As cold and bitter as snow may be,
It can warm the hearts of you and me.
Though nearly colorless it may appear,
Its sparkles and brilliance, soft and clear,
Can lift our hearts from shadows to light,
Filling us with hope after the darkest night.

For when the shadows give way to sun,
The countless flakes reflects the brightness of heaven,
As if heaven and Earth joined as one,
Telling us the bleakness is all done,
As a cleared slate to pave a new road
As the shining future has once more begun.
