Prophecy As I sat by the window watching the snow fall one afternoon, I marveled at the beauty of the scene. Each snowflake was an individual thing and very unlike the rest. My thoughts drifted back into the past - back to my class- mates in school. In each snowflake I could see the face of one of my friends.
