Scrutinizing Snowflakes

Debacle of powdered sugar spilling from heaven’s kitchen.
Frosted flakes of star dust and wanderlust.
Steeping in belief
-----------blissfully asleep
---------------------Drifting on dreams
--------------------------------memories they keep

Old sage, Masaru, massaging each crystal into Buddha’s blessings.
Bursting prayer power spinning infinite webs on infinitesimal looms.
Spider minds
-----------threading hopes
---------------------Widened eyes
--------------------------------majestic ropes

Taught and bound, laced in time. String theory’s melodic rhyme.

Neighbors are half notes dancing and prancing without taking a step.
Willing the world in a single breath.
Vapor rising
-----------taking form
---------------------Countless wishes
--------------------------------ivory storm

I put on my boots and got a warm coat.
Face to ebon sky, mouth open wide.
Who’s fantasy am I tasting tonight?

Cool poem with extra emphasis on the word cool.

I like this. Well written, and I can sense the longing. The last line is excellent, makes me wonder, and makes me want to taste a little more.
