First Flakes Fall
first flakes fall
upon polar pavement
heavy white in flight
settles on chilled bikes
drifting slowly past
resting gently on the ground
no harsh gale
only flakes mid air

Thank you!
Very nice. Good choice of words and tempo -- very calming and peaceful. Question -- did you find / take this image after writing the poem, or was the poem inspired by the image? They go very well together.
I found the image after the poem was finished.
Thanks for the kind words <3
Loving this poem!! "Polar pavement" it is for sure right now.

Terrific take on the snow. I’m surrounded by it at the moment so this hit home and even helped me enjoy the white stuff a little more ❤️

I love how light and airy and flaky these lines are! plus the alliteration and the internal rhyme... an impression, ala impressionism
a brisk, chilled photograph
