Snow Storm

Pellets of snow fall covering the ground in total white Frozen branches in tick tock fashion move from side to side whipped by invisible fierce winds; The icy breath of winter sits on his cold blue lips long gone are the days when he taught his children how to make snow angels. An old rusted shovel digs deep then resurrects itself, followed by a white shower of flying ice snow, Old man winter has returned with a vengeance there is an old tea kettle whistling inside the house but he can't hear a thing, only the sound of a snow blower as it spurts out more and more snow...

"long gone are the days when he taught his children how to make snow angels." Beautiful poetry! Yep, I remember those days well, having lived in much colder climates and now in the blistering desert. For the old bones, I prefer the blistering desert. Blessings.

I'm jealous we are buried in snow here, and the wind was howling something terrible, I wrote a poem about how to cope with bad dreams I hope you get a chance to read it, yours in Christ xo

Rose, this is an exceptionally well-written poem. This already exquisite poetry was given an additional dimension of beauty thanks to your stunning imagery, which, when combined with your high-quality language, was simply breathtaking.
