A Winter Wonderland

A December sun sends splendiferous rays
to illuminate Dawn's Halo of light.
And bright sunbeams polish the dullest days,
dissolving darkness imposed by the night.
But shadows can't appease Sol's appetite;
and He rises to consume night outright.
Ice crystals sparkle, and snowflakes glisten
as first light puts Winter's white on display.
And Dawn's silence compels you to listen
for the faintest sounds that awaken day.
Icy winds force children indoors to play;
making snowmen out of paper-mâché.
Icicles hang from the branches of trees,
and the air feels frigid, fresh, crisp, and clean.
You can walk on water where rivers freeze;
while white overshadows everything green.
And Sol sparkles like a yellow citrine,
imbuing the scene with a golden sheen.
Nature sculpted this Winter Wonderland,
and like Spring, Summer, and Fall, it is grand.
