Phyllis Babcock Poet Free verse

Winter Jewels

The morning sun peeked over the horizon
Bringing in the start of yet another new day
The snow glistened with sparkling whiteness
As the sun's rays picked up shining crystal prisms
Sparkling tree branches clung with droplets of snow
Looking decorated resembling frozen snow diamonds
Twinkling as the sun rays caught the tender flakes
The trees all sparkling decorated by mother nature
As the sun rose higher and  temperature warmed
The diamond remnants dissipated all to soon.

Connie Marcum Wong January 30, 2014 at 10:59 PM This is so beautiful Phyllis, and exactly the vision I remember when I visited relatives in north east Kansas. Trees decked in diamonds! Breathtaking to behold as is your poem! Sorry I haven't been around that much. I am still so busy with my little granddaughter who will be 2 yrs. March 2nd. She inspires me to write, but I don't have the time. LOL I hope you are well. Happy New Year!

Christine Phillips January 11, 2014 at 2:14 PM Hmm...some people had too much snow others had too little, while some yearn to feel what its like to be in the snow. A nice descriptive poem.
