Rockies

Upon the Rockies, where winter unfolds, 
A landscape transformed, in white it holds.
Snow-laden peaks, a majestic array it holds
Nature's masterpiece in cold ballet it folds,

Icy winds whisper through the canyon's embrace, 
As snowflakes dance, creating a lace. 
Evergreen sentinels, stoic and tall, in solace,
Witness the winter's enchanting thrall. In place.

Rocky cliffs adorned with frosty attire, 
A crystalline cloak, a shimmering fire. 
Silent echoes in the mountain air, 
Tell tales of winter, both bold and fair.

In valleys below, a hush holds, 
As winter's magic subtly molds. 
Footprints of wildlife, a story untold, 
In the Rocky Mountain winter, bold.

Winter magic over mountains and valleys. Your description is so enticing that a desire to visit this rocky terrain is induced. Beautiful poem ! Great rhyming too....
