….for Maria Carolyn
That morning the snow fell so softly
Like the snowflakes were tiptoeing
– so they wouldn’t wake you up
The wind didn’t dare to move the naked hedges
– right outside our window
I looked at your face
I still see it when I close my eyes
– so tiny and so beautiful
– so silent and peaceful
Ten little toes and ten little fingers
a perfect creation but silent and still
– seemed like you were just sleeping
I waited and wished…but you never woke up.
