Nette Onclaud Poet Rhyme

A Spoonful of Snow

Dash of snow flutters to the ground
And lands O  gently all around;
White as velvet quilt of feather
To drift  upon Yule's iced heather:
Bare now after Queen Winter's hand
Covering lanes from bright hues grand;
Which transforms the pines with finesse
And silver stars of gracefulness.

Yet night gleams through crystals  so bold
Adorning roofs.... bright joys enfold;
O pearled flakes that warm and spill
Through tuneful romps of love's goodwill...

How  children hail the dance of snow
On an EVE blessing life, aglow!
