The Snowman Poem by Marieta Maglas

The Snowman

Rating: 5.0


The snowman was confused and didn't know why

passion and reason were in balance.
Last week, he had to face a lot of snow.
He wanted to know how many
snowflakes were there already.
The snowman understood
the pure joy of life.

The rain began to fall and
the snow melted.
He wanted to feel the weight of life
on his shoulders.
Joined in to be there.
Now, he shines like demitasse.
He knows he has
nowhere differently to go.

He tries to separate
nature and freedom,
two different forms of
looking at effects
that cannot work together.
Admires the long black cars
and the white trees.
Sees the sky in the evening,
the daylight in the morning,
and this insignificant world.
He cannot perceive the night.

For him, the beauty of
the effects is simple and pure.
Tries to figure out the difference between
being alive and living ever.
Feels the first snowflake
fairy falling on his heart.
Clinging to the darkness of the night.
Thinking that the whole world is
confusing and
incomprehensible.

Tries to understand
the difference between
the feelings within and
the reality around.

He begins to wake up.

'Significantly, the night begins to kill the day's seconds...' expressive one. Makes to think too. Good.
