First Flakes

First Flakes

Yesterday came
With winters first flakes
Just a light dusting 
No snowballs to make

Out my window
Like a snowglobe 
Soaring snowflakes
Dance all alone

Yesterday came
Blowing first snow
Nothing too heavy 
Just a light throw 

Out my window
Through mornings night
Seeing first flakes 
Was such a delight
