Gorgeous Winter

Frozen diamonds twinkle me awake I feel the frigid air before I open my door The white blue beauty of outdoors grabs my breath I can barely speak; it is God’s work. Icicles hang off my porch, glisteningly shiny. Sparkles of well sculpted snow drifts greet me. It is a winter wonderland, and I am entranced. I feel like the North Queen of the Winter Fest. The dog takes a whiff and hides behind me. I laugh at her reluctance. The snow is luxurious. There are not yet any footprints. I stare with disbelief. How can it be this beautiful every single time? I fix myself a hot tea, and sit to stare out the window. Should I fix a fire? My husband asks. I care not. I am watching the most gorgeous scene of all.
