Snowglobe Memories - Mystic

Aurora smeared the high latitude blazing sky,
spread the splendor of the glittering night,
the constellation motif of the shimmering stars
designed the bejeweled stellar crown.

Snowflakes wafted in the silence of sparkle,
alighting softly on the leaning leaves,
and on the burdened boughs, all frozen mute,
while the confined wind whistled the winter tune.

Tiny sleighs glided on the buried pathways,
misty snow dust trailed the fading furrows.
Distant church bell I heard toll in the solitude,
children sang Christmas carol around twinkling trees.

I stood transfixed and mesmerized
beneath the transparent dome of the ornate sky,
amid the spectacular show of light and sound,
felt being stuck within a Christmas snowglobe.
