It's snowing in DC today
The land where my mother lays her final rest

Snow clouds my view as she finally finds reprief from her terrestrial being, but leaves us all behind a blizzard of emotions. 

Only an imprint is left in the fields of white, reminding us where she once was. 

A snow angel. 

When I lay in the outline, I still feel her warmth. I feel her memory. I feel her love. 
I wish to be wrapped in it forever, laying here and to be covered by the snow. 
She would yell at me to get up and get moving though. 

Lead a life beyond the snow of our past. Climb the mountains that she couldn't. Make footprints and trails that blaze beyond the overcast of dull, and push for more. 

She would wrap me up in a hug, kiss me on the cheek, and slap my back before waving me goodbye

I wish I could have waved her goodbye one last time, but in the arctic tundra of our uncertain times, I was forced to stay away, for my delicate angel's own safety. 

It was snowing in DC today
And raining everywhere else
