Swirling Snow

Each sculpted drift of swirling snow in ceaseless change as brisk winds blow invites me with its creamy white to linger on this sparkling sight in constant flow. No greater gift I'll ever know when crystals capture sunlight's glow to multiply its brilliant light, a million facets glitt'ring bright in dazzling show. I cannot pay the debt I owe for boundless beauty God bestows, so poetry I'm left to write to praise the Lord for this delight of drifting snow. |

This contest challenges us to write a florette poem. This form consists of two or more verses of four lines with syllable count of 8/8/8/12. The rhyme scheme is AABA, and in the fourth, longer line, there must be a word in the eighth syllable that rhymes with the ending word of the third line. Click on the contest link for more information if that sounds as confusing as I think it does. LOL
