SNOW
As the snow falls greyly upon the ground,
it screams at the thought of killing trees.
It’s tired and low,
blowing kisses to the flowers hiding underneath.
Yet now it’s cold,
they feel dark and blue.
It bellows with the wind and,
cries in pain.

A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.

Damn, that is some powerful stuff. I really like how you described the "screaming" of the snow at the trees. I also like the theme of the entire poem. It is beautiful.
Nikole,
Wow! Excellent personification. Usually people think of snow as peaceful, but I liked your images of pain and screaming. It is a refreshing contrast.
