Her Virginal Lie

The first snowfall has arrived, carpeting natures grounds Her pure virgin lay blows me away in total abound The winters colours now hidden, no more ashen dulls and greys For a marvel appears before me, I'm smiling on a winters day Skeletal trees show promise, shadowed by topside white In turn it allows the nighttime to show an element of bright Rooftops now show like tiles amidst a background of black Streetlights sharpen it's glow, for it's white shall never lack I awaken the following morning to find her virginal lie now scathed Footsteps of natures creatures criss-crossing their mental pave Having witnessed the first snows of winter, shows another seasons here Her tomorrows I look so forward to, to me she so endears *~* For the "First Snowfall" contest *~*
