Magic of An Icy Spell

While I gaze at nightfall through chilled droplets my musings try to redesign past reveries: oh those exotic, summer escapades now buried in gravestones of ice- powdered vapor… and now the blistering winds return when a frigid son of Poseidon veils eve's tableau with ghastly pines like numb statues macabre and furrowed, hiding the radiance of moonlight. Looks drab, not interesting, yet come early morn, the sprigs beckon a tune elegantly droning on lucent flakes to nibble the skyline red… a mirror of stars circling in a gentle, gentle prance, this, only in the magic of a white winter spell. 9/24/2016 Interesting Contest for john lawless

Nette, this is a powerfully "gentle prance" through the chilling droplets. Shoreline pines "like numb statues"..god that's a great line. thanks for participating in the contest.
