Anne-Lise Andresen Poet Couplet

- Diamonds In the Snow -

Sparkling snow crystals in a bright blue winter wonderland in your hand
A lovely thought about my pretty and beloved mother land

If you see angels in the snow you can remember the time with romance
Enjoy the tranquility descend while giving your childhood a second chance

Snow glistened and sparkled as the most beautiful diamonds at first glance
It was almost a little magic in what happened.... or was it romance

Childhood memories aroused when you see the rabbit tracks in the snow by chance
Oh, so rich I felt as a child in the clear, cold winter nights in snow crystals dance

Small red kids boots in sharp contrast to the white snow and a diamond remnants
Childrens eyes shining in delight and snow crystals sparkle of happiness evidence

Rose Young October 9, 2014 at 9:11 AM Dear Gail, Lovely imagery and rhythm. Who doesn't love making angels in the snow! And we are never too old (or young) for this. As the leaves are falling and blowing in the window in front of me, I am dreading the winters chores around the corner. Your poem will remind me to take time to play in the snow this year. Thanks!

Reason A. Poteet February 25, 2014 at 1:28 PM Very similar to your Alve Queen but this one I can relate to. Love that last set of couplets. It appeals to the grandma in me and the teacher. When I was a child we walked to school through a cemetery which was never cleared off, so little red boots were a common item in the winter.
