A cold day where it's warm
Frozen tears of happiness
Fell from the pillows of the sky
Onto our town, our Nest
Supporting my baby on my hip
Me and him look at her and sigh
She looks at snowflakes
As they fall from her sky
As if a groundhog, coming out
To give the world his Shadow Test
She sticks our her tongue carefully
Snowflakes gather as if looking for a place to rest
Would she remember this moment?
Remember this moment next year,
As she learned more of the world,
Her growing up came too near
Would she remember this moment
In another five years?
As she makes her friends
Giving her smiles and tears
Would she remember this moment?
In another ten years?
As she developed nervous knowledge
Giving her excitement and fears
Her plush body was warm to the touch
An angel of snow, she was in my arm
Each snowflake as unique as her
Each, like her, with their own charm
Would she remember this moment?
In another twenty years?
When she's grown and gone
Leaving me smiling, in tears?
Smiling as she giggled,
Hearing her joy, I realized all was fine
Life was made of moments
And this was a moment of a lifetime

This is really good! The only problem I have with it is the concept of snow in Georgia. I myself live in Georgia, and when we do get snow, it's rather pathetic.
Otherwise, I quite like the poem. 4/5. - Report As Spam
