This 5-7-5 poem is certainly a great ode to winter. The imagery in your words is so vivid and I love the artwork that you have chosen, perfect. Good luck in the competition. Jen.

As this 5/7/5 poem points out, although it may be freezing outside, with a little knowledge and knowhow you can remain as warm and snug as a bug in a rug inside.
Nicely done.
Best wishes to you in the contest.

Looks like a Kincaid picture. I'll have to check out more of Linda's work. I used to live in upstate New York. I hated the cold and the snow, but you capture the coziness of staying indoors with a warm fire when the ground is a blanket of white.

What a lovely photo. It reminds me of a snowglobe fantasy...hot cocoa and Christmas songs! A well-written 5-7-5. Good luck in the wintery contest. I hope you do well.

Good description in such a short form. Cozy image and pic. I'm not really sure if the prompt is actually for an ode or just a 5-7-5 about winter. I think humorous or pet pieces usually do the best in the contest but I like your write and I hope you do well. Good luck!

You're probably right about the humorous or pet pieces but the contest does say Ode to Winter, so I took it literally. Anyway, thank you much for the stars and wishes.

I admire you for doing so. I believe it's as it should be. Good luck!

Lovely five - seven - five ode to winter - my idea of an ideal winter, too! (I miss seasons.) Beautiful choice of artwork and colors to complete the poem. Great job!

"fire in the hearth" and "blanketed with snow" are really pretty phrases! This feels like wintertime to me.... so aptly titled! Nice pic and I like the color and presentation - reminds me of that fire in the hearth! Well done!

So cozy!! I love your photo!! Great entry for the Ode to Winter 5-7-5. You have written a short, but sweet poem that uses snow and and warm fires and what a great combination that is! Well done.

A very well-written 5-7-5 ode to winter. There is nothing as cozy as having some family time in front of the chimney fire while the snow is falling outside in the fields.
