Notes About The Poem

Slight revision of an old poem of mine

A Welcome Tranquil Scene

I breathe in quietude and face a welcome tranquil scene.
A beautiful secluded place
greets my eyes with iridescent sheen
beneath a wintry sky serene.

Here along this country lane, diamond flecks have interlaced
and softly fallen on terrain.
The dull and barren land has been effaced;
by dazzling snow my world is graced.

The air is fresh and crisp and clean. Enchantment rules the day!
Winter, when you are pristine
and when grey clouds have fled away. . . 
I welcome you to stay.
