Snow Blinds

The snow blinds
   a massive ocean of white
   stretching out across rooftops, trees, earth.
Early March storm
   a blustery nor'easter
   laden heavy with rain and snow mixes.
The day pale gray
  blinding with the thick deluge of white
  thunder booms and lightning glisten in reflection.
Bowed down in submission
  tree and branch genuflecting in surrender
  to the weight of the snow accumulation.
The blanketed earth falls fast asleep
  holding back the promise of spring
  just a little longer as snow blinds draw close.

Your imagery is beyond compare. Nicely written, and so clear.
