Notes About The Poem

Try a QuincrosticainContest Sponsored by Andrea Dietrich 09/23/23

 

Frost

Freezing conditions, the ground’s now icy white,
Roads may be slippery, so take care on that hill.
Oh look, Jack Frost came to visit us last night,
Seeing feathery ice patterns gives me such a thrill,
That drop in temperature, brrrr I feel the chill!
