Comment from Pearl Edwards
Good descriptions in this nicely rhyming poem -
the polar air came lumbering -
like the polar bear lumbering in the snow.
sparkling flakes of diamond dust - sounds beautiful and I love the picture. Nicely done,
cheers.

Lovely poem. The reader can feel your genuine love for nature. I too, love nature. Really enjoy gardening in the summer months here in New England.

Comment from rspoet
This is a winterful delight with marvelous imagery
I love the giant bears of snowy white simile
and the lumbering/slumbering rhyme
The "whirled and swirled and churned"
describes a blizzard exactly as I remember one
Then the morning stillness, the diamond dust
painted by the Master's hand.
A wonderful poem and perfect picture to match, my friend
Six stars to sparkle in the crisp winter air

Comment from kiwisteveh
Lovely, Janet. Each of your three stanzas has a new image to portray the freezing scene. In stanza 1 it is the lumbering bears. Then the blizzard whirling in a dance, and finally the picture-perfect painting.
Lovely smooth verse with excellent meter and rhyme.

Comment from Mary Wakeford
Beautiful in imagery, rhyming quality and in presentation. Polar air lumbering brought to me the imaging of lumbering polar bear ending its hibernation. Love that you have allowed that interpretation through your choice of word play. Flakes of diamond dust all painted by the Master's hand. Really lovely.

I love it. I can almost feel the cold air and see the beauty of the after blizzard morning. And you are right, God is the ultimate artist. Awesome job.

Comment from mvbrooks
Absolutely beautiful. You had me from the first two lines. The poem is very sensory with clear, visual images, with making the reader feel the shiver of the cold snow, (and touch if one images holding the snowflake).
This is the kind of poem that after you read it, you want to share it--both for the images and for the positive way it makes you feel.

Comment from Dawn Munro
Oh my, this is almost enough to make me fall in love with winter again - almost, but not quite because I could feel the cold! What imagery - so gorgeous, but nearly tangible - yes, the diamonds dazzle, but they are so frigid! Brrrr...(LOL) (Wonderful poem, though. *grin*)
