I'm finding inspiring winter poems here at Poetry Soup and this particularly speaks to me. I really like the way you depict the sound of winter.

what a beautful write about the frost !Laura :) I love your talent!

cool this should be added to a Christmas song!!

Very naturistic and picuresque.:) Thanks for your kind comment on my poem---it brought me here to this piece that reminds me so much of how things are starting to look around my part of the world. I went out to my car early this morning, and my windows were frozen--imagine that! Best wishes, Sara

The season is upon us and will be freezing in a few days. I can see the images quite clearly. Hey, start the fire inside and get some hot chocolate going. Great job! ~Joseph
