She Is Winter…Poetry for Garden Lovers
Alabaster skin, refined delicacy
opalescent as Mother of pearl.
Sapphire glints on ice,
Silver locks, adorned with snowflakes all aswirl.
Iridescent.
Poignant, tinkling, musical laughter,
Icicle fingers dripping diamonds,
Sunlight sparkles brilliant;
Blue topaz on Quartz.
Deliciously cool
nickelled light.
Frosty, haughty, immune.
Irresistible.
She Is Winter…
