Comment from Janet Foor
You make winter 'almost' sound appealing. A light hearted look at the season. And, ready or not, it's coming, I loved the alliteration of "w" and "s" words throughout. Great rhyming couplets. Well done.
Blessings

Janet, thank you so much :-) Yeah, it would take a talent far greater than mine to make winter sound actually appealing. LOL Thanks for your review :-) Brooke
Comment from Jackarrie
I really enjoyed this poem of rhyming couplets, You description of a white winter make it all sound so beautiful.
Crisp the air as wind is whirling,
sending flakes of luster twirling,
here and there and far beyond
where Winter's waved her magic wand.
Well written
Well done

Great poetic painting of Winter. Usually, I don't like the season, but with your rhyming and imagery, you make it much more tolerable. "Pure the pearls the world is wearing..."
Thanks!

Brooke, Loved this one. Snow is just so beautiful, until you have to go shovel it. We just got over a very cold spell with a few inches of snow attached. More on the way, so they say. You did an awesome job on this one and the picture is just adorable. Judy

Judy, thank you so much :-) Yeah, I'm not a snow fan. I'd be happy to see it only in movies and post cards for the rest of my life :-) Brooke
Comment from Dr. Nad
Thanks for sharing "White the World". I must say it reminds me of what is coming in a few months! LOL. The use of this style showcases your creative talents. My favorite line is "White the world with glittered pearling,
soft the sound as snow is swirling".
I love this whimsical rendering. Thanks for SHARING! God Bless You!

Comment from Warren Rodgers
Hi Brooke,
Good couplet rhyming
Consistent meter making a smooth read
excellent use of feminine end rhymes in 8,8,7,7 verses
good alliteration with "soft the sound as snow is swirling"!
and "where winter's waved her magic wand" and others.
Nice imagery throughout, with an interesting repeating line
and vivid personification. Reminds me of a time when I felt more delighted by the white stuff. A pleasure to read and review. Love VMarguarite's artwork too!
All the best,
Rodger :)

Rodger, thank you so much, my friend - today's snow only left a light coating on my car, so I'm not complaining about this time :-) Usually I detest the stuff. Brooke

Hi, Brooke, this is a wonderful seasonal poem about Winter! I love your use of language in the first two stanzas especially and wish I had a six left for this. The art is lovely and the tone of the poem is as soft as a snowflake. A real delight to read! Best wishes, Pete :)

A marvelous poem that celebrates the white of winter as autumn recedes into the gray mist with the flying leaves leading the reader to enjoy the crisp invigorating chill of winter's coat. Well done, Brooke.
