Snowflakes blanketed the world in winter white

Tenderly, they touched my impeded ears

Unlocked were the passageways to discern voices

Virtuously,  they repeated in soft whispers,

"Wisdom is to be absorbed like flakes of snow on skin."

Wonderfully soulful poem, Lin. The wisdom imparted in the last line is worth its weight in ink gold. Excellent thought imagery. Luminescent poetry. Love and joy always.

Thank you very much, Paul. Looks like we all made 'the list,' although it doesn't quite meet the requirements of being called a winner, considering the outcome.

"Tenderly, they touched my impeded ears," was my favorite line within this write, it was so very well written, with feelings squeezed within the line! I surely loved reading your delightful poem this morning! You will do well in this contest! Great Work my friend!!
