Hi Sara, This nonet is quite beautiful. I'm unfamiliar with this form of poetry but now am curious thanks to you. It seems that Sara has a "Sense of snow" as astute as Similia's. p.s. especially liked the "white haze back drop."

Imagery beautifully blended with happy memories of "sleigh rides" and "hot chocolate," Sara. Truly snow does dance. I love the nonet form that illustrates a snowbank forming from a single flake! Lovely! Blessings! Have a great weekend!

Such delicate and tender imagery.. so lovely... seems heavenly... the problem with snow is like life, it is so beautiful until someone walks all over it...

Dear Sara, love the imagery in this beautiful Nonet. You have skilfully created a wondrous winter scene. The title and accompanying picture is perfect. I love the purity of this as white as the snow. Makes me wish to see some snow fall. An enchanting, delightful read. Thank you for sharing. Hope you are having a good weekend. Xx

thank you, Christina, for such complimentary words. I'm grateful you liked my poem and appreciate the winter scene I created. I suppose I yearn for snowfall too...haven't had any this year to speak of. Glad you found my poem enchanting and delightful to read. You made my evening. hugs and have a great weekend yourself, Sara

Snow flakes of romantic fantasy! We haven’t seen any this year!

we had 5 minutes of snow that melted about an hour later...didn't really stick. At this point, I don't we'll see any snow or ice. thanks for your visit and have a great evening, hugs, Sara

We had some of that over night--indeed beautiful to watch snow on branches like cotton balls. Lovely poem, Sara.

Ahhh!! I like the work and the picture that goes along with it. We never know what might happen this time of year. It could go on to be spring or winter could come again. Thanks for sharing this one and for dropping by my page. Sara K

thanks, Sara K, for stopping by. True, this time of year the temperature,etc., can be temperamental. Yesterday, we had summer; today we're back to deep winter. Crazy, fickle weather! Have a great day, Sara B
