Beet juice

When is a flurry
Not a flurry
But pale sprinkles
Of snow
No wind means
No flurries
But gently falling
Snow
So gentle
It is hard
To detect
No flurries
Certainly no blizzard
All the hidden words
For snow.
My beloved spent time
Last night
He found one way
To protect our bushes
From salt damage.
It seems spreading beet juice
On the sidewalks
Makes the snow easier
To remove.
We will wake in the spring
With purple walks.
