December

As a winter child I love December snowflakes, cozy scarfs and mittens and snowy lovely scenes; the smell of grandma cooking her Christmas fruitcakes, oh, I love the fragile snow covering all the greens. _____________________ November 10, 2021 Poetry/Quatrain/December Copyright Protected, ID 11-1405-681-10 All Rights Reserved, 2021, Constance La France Written for the Standard contest, November or December Quatrain sponsor, Caren Krutsinger, Judged 01/09/2022 Third Place

Mayo covering my salad greens? Loved this quatrain of 12-syllable lines. Great you are a long-term PS villager and fellow-poet. I was surprised by this title, but then CHRISTmas will be here before the turkey runs. shalom, shalom

i think that Winter in far Northern and Southern countries must be extraordinarily awesome to see, we have snow in Johannesburg about once in 9/10 years and shops close, business stops and shcools play and cameras and cell phones all clicking, even on the highway, most cars pull off and get out of the car - it is such a rare beautiful scene for us to see and experience. Hugs and blessings Jennifer.

Jennifer, I am a Winter child, born in a snowstorm, so I love the snow, it is awesome. It should be starting soon as our temps are going below zero now. No business closures here, life goes on as usual. Thanks for the visit, comment, and compliment, hugs ~ love and serenity _Constance
