Mystical Magic Surrounds Jack Frost's Handiwork

Frosted icicle ledges Cold air surprises our noses Hard diamond water forms ice Asthmatics run for their inhalers Dripping icicles forms well tipped arrows Crystal spider webs of glass peeks from your windshield Glistening blue-white quilt covers spring grasses Evergreens wear their Snow hats and muffs proudly Dainty snowflakes caught on tongues of children Dainty perennials hide under their new heavy blankets, Red hydrants turn into frosted candy-canes wearing white beanie. Mystical magic surrounds Jack Frost’s handiwork. Gay snowmen sports pink and green checked scarves, stolen out of Mama’s closet. Happy children, lying down in snow angel formation, Older siblings, bribe younger sisters to stay home with hot chocolate while they go sledding. Reluctantly take them with them, after their mothers discover their missing scarves. Mothers stay home and enjoy hot chocolate. Mystical magical winter.
