Poetry is Power: Unique like a snowflake

From the sky,

Thousands of snowflakes fall,

Layering up,

Making mountains of snow.

Fluttering down,

Like feathers.

So beautiful and unique.

Just like us,

We are beautiful and unique,

And don’t let anyone tell you,

That you are not,

Because,

You are amazing,

You are beautiful,

And you are strong,

No one can put you down,

And you know that.

You are strong,

You are beautiful,

And you are unique,

Just like a snowflake.

Sports were my greatest concern growing up, to the detriment of almost every other activity. I never considered choir or band or scouting or anything else. I was all-in with my sporting interests, which varied in degree between basketball, football, baseball, and track.  My personality was completely defined and characterized by my involvement in athletics.…
