Snow Day

I watched my window
And beyond it saw
A snowflake hover
To fight the fall.
Against gravity
It struggled soft
And yet I had to wonder.
Was this exact, and tiny piece
Particular?
Was it, as snowflakes go
Extraordinary? Perhaps
The lone underdog,
Here to win the fight.
Or a frozen princess lost in time.
But as I mused
It lost the will
And began to fall
Quiet, calm
To join them all.
