- Winter Planet Earth -

            A
            cold breath
            Winters night
            the roof beams arch
            Laces of ice and snow drape the planet
            The landscape is crowned with sparkling diamonds
            Roses on the
            window pane
            beauty's
            brow

Joe Dimino Date: 11/10/2023 12:41:00 PM Nicely put, Anne; I prefer my winter scenes, from a lodge window, with glass of wine in hand. I'll take the word of others, as to the wonder of the slopes.
