A Winter's Eve Walk In the Snow

Crystalline stars are dancing down,
blanketing the now white ground;
cascading glass against the sky,
intermingles with the stars tonight.

The frigidity of the spectral trees
light-shimmering, their foliage be;
our footprints crunch crisp, snowy ground,
as together we stroll through the town.

We cast our eyes up to the heavens,
of shooting stars, we counted eleven
and make wishes for peace and harmony
and dream of next Spring's verdancy.

So pleasant are the ways of those who tread winter's trails in gratitude and appreciation. Just beautiful, M.L! ... I came back to this one tonight -- and found a whole new poem awaited me. Thanks for the treat! :) GW

It can be beautiful, when there's not more ice than snow; we got a bunch this Christmas, so we postponed the family celebration until New Years Day. It's finally melting!!!!!
