How Magical

How magical is lovely wintertime. Myriads of flakes efface drab terrain, creating an appearance that’s so sublime I want to sleigh ride on a country lane. Imagine riding on that one-horse sleigh cuddling with your sweetheart right at your side - a panoramic snow scene on display. Just think of the pleasure this would provide. Oh, to take delight in this winter scene, inhaling quietude and feeling bliss - the world encased in white with satin sheen. Pristine and splendid – magical is this!

I am surprised you did not pick a certain rhyme form, with you expertise in such things.. However, this one flows so well and I am sure will do well in the contest..

This is such a delight to read dear Andrea. Really lovely how you have captured the enchantment that winter can bring- especially if the one you love is by your side! Beautiful imagery that transports the reader there,’ myriads of flakes’ ‘ white with satin sheen’. You have artistically created a magical scene that’s heartwarming amidst the depths of winter. A treat to read. Thank you for sharing. Hugs and smiles :):)

I agree, Andrea. Winter has its own magical appeal...not everyone sees it though. Your rhymes were fine (sorry that rhymed :-) In nearby downtown Ft. Worth, one can take a one horse sleigh ride on fake snow (in December and January). It is, as you say, quite pleasurable. Have a splendid Saturday, Sara

You capture how remarkable a coating of snow is--like new clothes. Fun to watch it come and slowly melt away. A lot of fun playing it is, especially when we have some leisure time and don't need to be at work first thing in the AM!
