What if Snowflakes Don’t Fall in Winter?
written by: Michelle Ayon Navajas
What if snowflakes don’t fall in winter?
and fresh buds don’t bloom in spring?
or summer doesn’t need sunshine?
nor leaves don’t fall in autumn?
Will you remember how we used to be?
the love we shared gently
like snowflakes falling smoothly in winter out of thin air unannounced, unnoticed
unspoken yet blissful
the dreams we dream, hopes we hope
like spring awakening the earth
bringing heaps of sunshine after
the cold, gloomy winter
the laughters we gave out
like sunshine in a summer day
rhyming along as the birds singing
passionately hot, vibrant and crisp
the memories we created
like leaves falling flawlessly in autumn breeze, with cooling temperatures and darkening nights
What if snowflakes don’t fall in winter?
and fresh buds don’t bloom in spring?
or summer doesn’t need sunshine?
nor leaves don’t fall in autumn?
Will you still love me tenderly?
