Snowflake

Tell me a secret,

Why are you a hexagon and not a heptagon,

Delicate designs,

Reflecting sunshine,

Your secret's safe with me.

Having six arms,
What are you reaching for?

Surrounded by friends,

Traveling towards them,

And resting among same,

Until spring.

Delicate designs, 

Replaced by puddles,

Still reflecting sunshine,

Running off

Without arms
