Melody of melting ice, also my favorite, as I watched the last traces of what might be my last snow angel ever... fade away. Powerful in it's delicate balance. Thank you

I love this sparse picturesque poem. I can see the white snow, red cardinal, green grass and hear the silence, the melody of the melting ice, chirping and chuckling.
