Snow Flowers

On that day when Hope, Faith and Sanity died,
the world iced over, bitter and cold, and last
snow fell upon Earth's fire, warm and steaming, taken
away was Mother Nature's bliss and gone so fast.

On that day when Hope, Faith and Sanity died,
two hearts mourned for a time unknown, and all
snow left ash behind, waiting for fires to awaken.
Hearts waited for Nature's move, the end of Fall.

On that day when Hope, Faith and Sanity died,
Love left the heart and became a name, those
snow flowers sprouted in heart and home, and shaken
by fictitious loss, Hope became new life; a Rose.
