Winter's Magic

Winter’s Magic

Winter wizard casts cold spells with gusto
As torrents of snowstorms dance flamencos
Champagne confetti drifts in bits of snow
Clear technicolor snowflakes spin aglow
As winter winds enchanted spells now sow
Bright snowfall’s glitter – solstice nights light show
Meadows and boughs bewitched by snowy ghosts
Wear sparkling blankets for enchanted tableaus
Hypnotic flurries weave to and fro
In the trance of crystal ice chateaus
All the world wears an enchanted chapeau
Winter magic captured in a snow globe.

Hi Sam, sorry I haven't visited your poems for long as I have been quite busy at the home front with my children and grand child at home. What a stunning winter scene you have painted. "Meadows and boughs bewitched by snowy ghosts Wear sparkling blankets for enchanted tableaus Hypnotic flurries weave to and fro In the trance of crystal ice chateaus".... ! Winter is indeed a wizard who performs magic with gusto ! Awesome descriptions dear Sam. This cute little poem goes into my FAVE.

Dearest Valsa, with a new grandchild and family at home, I know how insane things can be! That being said, any time we can visit is a treasure! Your fav is truly an honor. Had fun being enchanted by winter's magic show all over again as I remembered being totally mesmerized by watching snow fall then walking through a wonderland of fantastic scenery! Know you remain in my thoughts and prayers, dear friend! Blessings of health, happiness and, of course, inspiration to you and your family!!

Gosh, wowww what an enchanting poem this is, Sam! I feel like swinging in this soft and beautiful magic swirling in spells of the winter wizard.. Ah, such a gorgeous personification you've done here, winter really behaves like a wizard.. Stunning descriptions throughout with glowing alliterations and especially, I love your rhymes too, they are immensely elegant! So many lines I adore here "Champagne confetti drifts in bits of snow", "Wear sparkling blankets for enchanted tableaus" Truly amazing

Happy New Year, Hiya! Thank you so much for your amazing reading of this poem and wonderful feedback! What an honor to be compared to "Frozen" - a truly magical story as magical as watching snow fall. Was delighted to know you picked up on the "fairytale" ambiance of this poem - the underlying wonder. I am so honored by your fav. Thank you! If we can see past the cold and barrenness of winter, there is magic in this season that transforms the world like no other season! Sending you blessings for the new year!
