Notes About The Poem

A Visit From Jack Frost

icy white frosting
glistens on my once green grass ...
winter has arrived

slippery pavements
must be careful when walking...
sister Susie falls

'white frosting' - how descriptive - yes, I hope you are careful, Jan, I have fallen on ice (it is more embarrassing than painful!)

I had my house on the market and was hoping to be in the south this winter, therefore avoiding frost and snow and cold. I didn't sell my house. Reading this now was perfect timing.

Nice one Jan indeed Mr frost is now in his season so we all need to beware. Remember the Christmas movie of the same name, one of my favs. Hope all well with you, Blessings,Gordon
