First Place

"To appreciate the beauty of a snowflake, 
it is necessary to stand out in the cold."

                                                                                       Aristotle

 

Winter Magic

 

      The winter storm began with a few scattered flakes,
   but soon the snow was falling, swirling and twirling;
      white covered the city, streets, paths, forests and lakes,
   I loved watching the snowflakes dancing and whirling.

      It was wild with trees swaying back and forth in wind,
   beauty was happening beyond my windowpane;
      oh, I was in a winter magic state of mind,
   each perfect small white snowflake like a song refrain.

      When the snow ended I beheld a wonderland,
   I went outside in the crisp air to breathe the cold; 
      all around the landscape was majestic and grand,
   I returned from my snowy walk with feet ice-cold.
