IVORY FLAKES

Assailing my  
     attention        
          attacking with its 
               appeal, alluring...  
                    awesome --- Ivory flakes!!!  
     
     Blanketing pavement and my
          brain with 
               beauty of 
                    blizzard
                         bliss --- Ivory flakes!!! 

          Celestial blessing from God of compassion*
               comforting with chills
                    challenging my caroler's chants and
                         Christmas card's creativity; oh...
                              crystalline wealth ---Ivory flakes!!!

               Daydreaming while
                    defying 
                         dreariness...
                              delighted am I and
                                   desirous to feel --- Ivory flakes 
in my winterless country!!!
