The Streets of Christmas

Snowflakes falling softly
cover the ground in fine white powder.

People, with their shopping bags
pull their coats tight against the cold.

Twinkling lights
hung from every building
begin to blur as the snow falls faster.

The Christmas wreath
hanging in the center of the street
sags under the weight of new snow.

Christmas time has come again.
And with it a blur
of people
and snowflakes
fill the city streets.
