~Sidewalk Snow~
When its new
Everyone's excited
It's beautiful
It's amazing
That's all they talk about
It has a reputation to uphold
An expectation
To be something beautiful
To be something desired
Something of glory
It's taken advantage of
After a while
Only a few still notice it's beauty
And the rest of the world
Is just used to it
It's set the bar now
A whole new standard
That glimmer is to be expected
From every new fall
The rest is useless
It's glamour fades
As humans unknowingly
Kick dirt into it
Tarnishing it
Destroying it
It's dark now
Covered with distain
Filled with bountiful shame
Reminiscent of the beauty
It once obtained
Everyone wants it gone
They want it melted away
It's no longer pretty
No longer useful now
It's less than perfect
It's done
It's had it
It waits so acceptant
So patiently
For the deadly sun
