Favorite Quote:
Life is full of possibility."


Brightness drift down from the heaven’s palace

With chance, those lovely creatures get to stay

Or sometimes they chose to have held a race

For coming summer, shall pass for the day

 

Sometime too mad and losses temperate

And of their somber, eye of heaven fade

Tough winds strengthen their violent moderate

Nor sky crystals may win against their shade

 

Though tininess trimmed their romantic soft

Holy complexion embossed down within

And often are they sleep quiet up aloft

Till shaking of the summer breeze begin

 

Life moves on as thou show your talent flair

Life goes beyond as thou leave no despair

This sonnet is about different types of snow I saw (either in the real life or on movies) in my life. Plato believed that everyone was born to have a function and the only way to achieve true happiness is finding and doing the right function. So how about those that are not living things?

To me, Snow, like us, have their own feelings and functionality. Sometimes they're happy and provide us beautiful landscapes and fun, while other times they might be furious and create hurricanes of snow bombarding us. 

Nature is mythical and lyrical. It is a double-edged sword. Aristotle believed that all the truth was hidden in nature - that is so close to our life yet so far at the same time. I also love the nature since it was unpredictable, just like me.
