The Soft Rime

The picturesque white haired landscape                                                                          Windows of icy flowers offer a prismatic show                                                                Thorny ice crystals everywhere the trees cannot escape                                                       Even time seems to stand still frozen by the hoary cold                                                             Grabbing up some graupel like a treasure of frigid pearls                                                                     Everything is now crystalline even the mist                                                                                              frosty winds have taken control with its Midas swirls                                                                                Wondering what kind of wintery spell is this
