Suddenly sunlight,
shining on rooftops,
lying along pavements
like blankets of smiles.

Suddenly sunlight,
breaking through treetops
like the shimmering fingers
of God's only child.

Suddenly snowfall,
each child with a snowball
rolled in their hand,
armies of laughter conquer the land.

Suddenly snowfall,
silence descends
and the earth is a chapel
of angels and men.
