Snow drifts all through the late night storm
thin ice coats form,
from cold rains’ freeze
that wraps the trees.
A world of white will soon emerge
and sun will purge
top layers of snow
to start the show.
A winter wonderland appears
then drops like tears.
From cold rains’ freeze
come crystal trees.

You put it very well. Truly magical. Though by this time in late winter, I’m also looking forward to the magic of spring.
Thanks, Anthony. No doubt that makes more than two of us!

Well, you are truly a lucky man Oz! It’s only beautiful when we’re talking about it or sitting beside the fire. Try going somewhere and it’s not a pretty story! Thanks.

I’m glad someone can appreciate an ice storm… we were without power all night last night, so I’m having a little trouble seeing the beauty today. BUT… if I could, I’d come right here to find it. Nice job, Shirley
