Snow Conversations

And the snowy conversations continue unto spring.
Take a seat, we are not done yet..
I can see what you are doing there..
Within all the soft, white, beauty of today
There is the cold, frozen silence for tomorrow...
But for all my wisdom,
I still sit down and listen, for the snow knows how to converse.
I still sit down and listen, for the snow knows how to soothe.
I sit down and listen to the snowy story...

And the silence of the snow continues unto spring..
Look afar, we are not done yet..
I can see what you are doing there..
Within the vast expanse of the frozen silence today
There is a promise of spring for tomorrow..
But for all my wisdom,
I still stand in disbelief, for the snow knows how to conceal..
I still stand in disbelief, for the snow knows how to subdue..
I stand and gaze at the snowy spectacle..

Miracles

"No, not a miracle in days.."
A groundhog just walked out and predicted an early spring
A leprechaun just turned the Chicago river Green.
"Is this the best you've got
Where can I find a better soothsayer?"
I bet there is one just around the corner
"Ha.. I guess I'll buy that.."

"No, not an answer in days.."
Do you remember why you came this far?
Do you know how far you still want to go?
"Is this the best you can do-pose more questions
Where can I find the answers?"
I bet everyone else is also still searching
"Is this the best you've got
Where can I find a better soothsayer?"
I bet there is one just around the corner

"I am scared I'll just run into myself when I turn around the corner! 
The eternal optimists that we  are, we'll always have a version of us watching out for us just around the corner, telling us: 
This too Shall Pass..

After-all when have non-believers ever seen miracles?"
