Starlight pierces ebony
above sculpted shades of white.
And moonbeams soften the scene,
gilding night with golden light.
Donning a crystalline dress,
Nature's a picture of grace.
And draped in feathery down,
stands frozen in time and place.
Billions of snowflakes gather
on bare branches, where they freeze.
And subtle features get carved
by the breath of a sharp breeze.
Breezes doesn't blow strong enough
to dislodge the sticky snow.
And the laden branches bend,
bowing impossibly low.
Cold cast its enchanting spell
in the throes of arctic chill.
And silence imbues magic
with Winter's artistic skill.
