The shape of a snowflake is determined primarily by the temperature and humidity at which it is formed

six-fold radial symmetry
radical decision
to fall
to cohere
or
stand alone/pouting--resolute
falling
tempered droplets at -13°
welcome to planet earth
this grand golden prairie awaits your drift
your crystal blessing
rivers & wetlands tremble
winds whip what gold remains
ground to gravity gained
gold to silver to more silver
falling
frozen nucleus calling to some
primordial splendor
winter's alchemy
falling
falling
here
catch it upon your tongue
and taste time
captured
in bright
petaled perfection

here
