The snow is falling upward

The snow is falling upward,
The sun is falling down;
The moon is out in morning,
And the stars are spinning round.
The birds are singing at midnight,
And the owls hoot at noon;
The snow is falling upward,
And in morning hangs the moon.
The lovers never go to sleep,
And the dreamers never wake;
The willows have all forgot to weep,
And the earth, it always shakes.
The snow is falling upward,
All the stars are falling down;
I meet my love in the moonlight,
And I never touch the ground.

    This will keep my warm during the winter months. I have someone so beautiful and complete who is walking with me as I imagine this all. I have never viewed winter as a metaphor for death but for birth itself.
