Notes About The Poem

Contest Simply Beautiful Kelly Deschler
~awarded 5th place~</center>

Winter

Winds whisper secrets with icy lips
Icicles hang like fingers from skeletal trees
New blanket of snow sparkles like tiny diamonds
Tiny snowflakes fall like confetti from heaven
Everywhere the eye can see is painted a brilliant white
Romantic roaring fire removes the icy chill
