Lucid January Night

The snow nibbles your fingers and nose

You stare wonderingly at the shadowed white

Flakes quietly melt upon your shoulders

Down some frosty brick steps you trek

Making the first stamps of melted snow

It's a cold, lucid January night

Stars peek out of the blacker than black sky

Yet, so much light surrounding

Sighing, you glance behind to find

Your footprints following every step

You decide to look on the inside

At your heart, but quickly waver

Watching God dust the earth

Is the wisest choice anyone can make tonight

  2. "Your footprints following every step." I like it. :) I think you should write a poem about The Vanilla Bee.
