Good alliteration of words, misty morning in your first stanza. I like your winter story within your poem. It flows well and your artwork choice goes well with your thoughts. Happy Holidays and good luck in the contest.

Great poem for winter so it might have fit two contests! I like the image of "icy knives etching pictures on the pane." I like how it seems we're inside looking out and then outside with passing walkers, and then return inside with the "creatures huddling in winter's den."

Minus Zero--
Picture not appropriate really.

Why not reverse this so it has more impact: Frosties spread like icy knives

To something like "icy knives spread across the window, etching pain in the view."

How about a "wrapped up something hurries by." If you are talking abut real cold then you aren't going to know stranger from friend they will be so wrapped up.

Nice effort. Good luck on the contest

Best
