Enjoying Winter's Sparkling Wonderland
I enter the outside crystal palace
into winter’s magnificent display
where wild and free imaginations place
importance; and inspiring thoughts convey
a higher meaning in nature’s own way.
Snow sparkles squint vision with sunlight’s ray.
A power delaying comprehension
of beauty and splendor for the pilgrim.
Adjusted eyes view nature’s invention
like a child with an enormous prism,
or poem with elaborate rhythm;
fresh powdered snow’s sensationalism.
It seems a shame to spoil snow’s smooth surface
with footprints moving any direction,
or even with straight lines made on purpose.
They damage winter’s glorious perfection,
disrupting morning’s sunlight reflection
with remnants of a lover’s affection.
Forgive, sparkling wonderland, my footprints deep
That cut into and marred your beauty steep!
