.Nonet
A nonet is a poem which has nine lines. The first line has nine syllables, the second eight, the third seven and so on, until the (9th line) which has only one. Any subject or theme, rhyming is not compulsory. However, it's vital that a nonet flows smoothly and tells a complete thought. You can also write a nonet poem in a reverse format.

Her hoarfrost painted fingernails send shivers racing down my spine and a gaggle of goosebumps quickly raise the alarm for feeling her touch chilling my flesh I shudder at my core. ~ A cruel and empty hearted mistress queen of ice and snow, Winter subjects the land to Her freezing bitter winds while snowflakes bury Autumn under bland blankets of white on white.

Being more familiar with this form, the nonet, I enjoyed your metaphors and especially like your "gaggle of goosebumps", a fine write on winter.
