Angel Dust

Angel dust
descended from heaven,

Incessantly.
And placed itself
Gently

On the green below.

The lushest green and the purest white,
Were rivaling each other's splendor.
Inseparably, gorgeous.
Angel dust.

~ Prajakta

(Describing the first snow in Kingston this year, and the first snow of my life)

Droplets of wisdom

I am learning,

To observe more, and judge less;
To think more, and speak less;
To appreciate more, and demand less;
To strengthen beauty, and conceal less;
To dine slower and relish the taste;
To pursue more and worry less;
To make time for music;

To feel insignificant; and therefore powerful.

To live a life of simplicity,
quality and radiance.
