Heaven's Snowflake

So Curious about the Christmas snow.
Hoping in every flake to spy.             
God's magic in all it's intricacies
Released from His cupped hands on high.
Why were they created, each so unique
And precious in every way?
Mesmerized by the thought He took
To bring such vision to light today.
Each snowflake holds a priceless key
For our Lord's heart of all things.
Each crystal unlike it's neighbor
Glide to earth on heaven's wings.
Alone we too are dramatic and rare
Each life gifted in His eyes.
But united together in tender prayers,
Our voices will blanket the skies.
