Haiku for a snowy evening walk.

Tender young white snow,
An unbroken new canvas
Waiting for footprints.

I walk in the snow.
It is still falling quickly,
Dancing on the breeze.

Snowflakes on my face,
Melting in my eyelashes,
Blessing upturned face.

Behind me footprints
Covered with the falling snow.
I do not exist!

I am all alone
Amid the falling snowflakes.
So much beauty here.

Peacefully reflect
The white falling snow stillness
Silent in my soul.

Virtue

I am innocence.
For whom the longing arms doth reach,
In tombs of silent senseless sleep,
Who slips on by desire's beach,
Upon unknowing's endless deep.

I am purity.
And though I tread the spotted world,
Must pass and see the unclean thing,
Though at me shame and insult hurled,
My hands are clean, I feel no sting.

I am charity.
With endless love for all mankind
Seeking out your better parts
Ever a reason wishing to find
To hold you in the best of hearts.
