Snowflake

Imagine a snowflake
falling from the sky, yes the sky
where else would it fall from?
And as it falls, it grows, it crystallizes, it freezes
into a unique structure,
something that people will praise,
something ir-reproducible – like a made up word.
But I ask:
As this flake falls,
white, crisp, light onto your feather filled parka like
a feather, and melts into its constituent form,
and soaks into the fabric,why can’t it refreeze
and take a new shape?
Another shot at uniquity – another made up word.
Why must its individuality, its trajectory
end with one shot?
The water cycle will tell you it doesn’t:
Evaporation, Condensation, Precipitation, Storage
And the seasons say so too.
