Poem #71: A Snow Globe
#72 of Poetry
Assignment #1 of my Creative Writing Poetry class in college. It's 1 out of 8. It's an extended metaphor for people and their personalities.
A Snow Globe
Sometimes I envision the world as a snow globe
Full of snow globes
Each person is a little snow globe;
Each with their own problems
And their own personalities,
Little flakes that fly through the air.
Each person seems to ignore one another;
Each person is trapped in their own little world.
However, as a whole
Each of the little snow globes
Dance and flicker frolic together, in harmony
As little pieces of snow
Surrounded by a glass dome that brings their worlds
Together, for all to watch and enjoy.
