Second Place

 
(My inspiration is number 3, the Snowman winter scene.)


I love snow falling, watching it blow and swirl in drifts, 
like a dance- snowflakes prance and twirl all night;
I walk, a nighthawk as the flakes unfurl their fragile gifts.

And at dawn, I yawn and crawl to my bed for some sleep,
I dream ... of white agleam in my head under a light;
of a man, a snowman and a red bird-  with a song to peep.

The morn brings beauty to adorn each tree and house with trills,
a painting, sustaining from a corner coffeehouse scented right;
slush, in the morning rush, a reality douse of slippery hills.
