Snow Globe Spendor

~Snow Globe Splendor~ A misty fog escapes my mouth each time I exhale warming my cold lips As I breathe a coldness fills my lungs with a pine freshness The powdery snow embraces the arms of each bare tree limb and each park bench holds a cushion of frozen flakes almost welcoming Icicles hang like glistening diamonds from the streetlights as the sun hits them shining Wraping my arms about myself to find warmth from the frigid air I watch as the children race to the top of a steep hill to ride their new Christmas sleighs down over and over again laughing in delight their noses and cheeks a rosy red Walking away frozen water crystals crunch underfoot when my day is shaken and the snow begins to dance and twirl silently falling to blanket my footprints in a hush,leaving me spellbound in this Snow globe splendor Contest: stuck in Christmas snow globe Sponsor: Bobby May Date:11/20/2019

What a metaphor, a Snow Globe Spender. No snow here, but we had a walk on a sandy beach for Christmas. Collected some sea shells. Happy writing for the New Year, Kai
