Winter Wonderland

It began on a January day as the trees coated in lily white snow forgot summer and all its precious sway Lost in a dream of frosty sparkle glow my winter wonderland revived in toe while I pressed my nose against the window; I inhaled the silver blue of Godly ray and watched the snowflakes falling to the ground without making a sound. Paving the way for the rose, and the pine, and the hound, my heart was planted for a winter's found with stardust hope from God's colossal bound It brought forth memories of my family tree the smiles and laughter shared in Montreal back when I was small, sitting on dad's knee I truly felt so loved, and very tall Frosted silver bells, eyes that saw it all winters came winters went, I heard the call so I moved away. Though I don't know why, I love it when it snows, its such a high. December 12, 2018 Sponsor: Emile Pinet Contest: Winter Wonderland

A beautiful memory; lovely word painting; I can see it from the imagery the poem contains and I want to visit there.

Pixie, you certainly describe a winter wonderland so perfectly. I have never lived (except two years in England when I was very young) in a cold snowy covered environment and although i haven't, have always longed to. I understand your high even though I have not experienced it first hand. Loved every word. Hugs, Jennifer.

This is beautiful imagery. I had never found the exact right way to describe the prettiness of snow, but you have in this line: "I inhaled the silver blue of Godly ray and watched the snowflakes falling to the ground without making a sound." I am clapping and smiling and loving this poem.
