The Fractal
Rumour has it that I'm a perfect example of a fractal
If you could accurately measure my edges, they would stretch to the moon and back
But all we know for sure is that this is pure math and theoretical
However, my best feature is, that I have no front nor back
So, even though I may pitch upon your nose
We will in fact, never come, face to face
I am most often seen in winter when I'm considered prettier than a white rose
It is also true that my descendants are older than the human race
And remember the power of this tiny snowflake
The next time you zip along those mountainous ski slopes
It should be a timely reminder that you can't eat and keep your cake.
I may be pristine and white, but for a greener world, I also have high hopes
Footnote:
What a cute way to way to remind us of our environmental responsibilities, not that we should need one, what with all the ecological disasters and emergencies we are all facing one way or another.
So, I would like a show of hands from all of you that care. 🖐
