FIRST  PLACE

Snow

                             An ethereal lady visiting us!
                         She arrives magnificently dressed
                 In white silky laces, and exquisite silver jewellery,
                     Glistening and glittering, in a light feathery gown.

                She breezes in dancing and prancing around the trees,
                  But gradually her angelic silhouette gets blurred
                    By a luminous veil - her dainty slender figure
                                Becoming translucent to our eyes...

                  With her celestial magic wand, she turns the tall 
                          Evergreens gorgeously adorned with
                Shimmering snow-pellets, each snowflake reflecting 
                 Elation and ecstasy concealed and crystallized!

Mala, dear friend, your lines are draped in in beautiful images born out of fairytales and purest fantasy spreading the magic of snow from a "celestial wand." I am totally enchanted by your poem. Congratulations on your win. Easter blessings and hugs to you!

Dear Sam, Thank you so much for your inspiring and kindest words! Living in Canada for many years, I got used to snow, and enjoy snowy days. Some days, when I don’t have to go to work, and get the opportunity to watch the falling snow - the silvery snowflakes, the evergreens draped with snow-pellets, I feel captivated by the magical beauty! Love and many Hugs to you, My Gifted Friend!

Thank you, Dear Paula. This year I was in India most of the winter, so didn’t have much chance to enjoy our Snow-lady dancing around! Delighted to hear from you - looking forward to reading your lovely poems! Love and Blessings, Sweetest Friend!
