I adore winter for a few months. We used to ski and the quiet won me over. I like your footstool idea though. Very creative and poetic. I see you did well. Well deserved

You know I hate cold weather!! ;) :) Yours was beautiful write about my least favorite season.... but, you know, I find it difficult these days to figure out a rhyme or reason (to coin a phrase - lol!) to many of the contests... And PLEASE do not think that is a complaint because it is NOT! :) But I am reminded why I never, ever really look at the results no matter what, if any, place I receive... I've looked at the last two and I have RE-AVOWED not to ever look again!! ;) :) Thanx for your review, Beautiful Friend! ;) Yvette

You have told me that you never look. I used to always look. Now I don?t bother either.
Comment from Mark D. R.
A terrific entry. I consider this Haiku, especially your last line twist.
Your illustration enhances your word imagery.
Best wishes in this contest.
P.S. While this is ode to winter, I prefer the spring look shown in your illustration (-:

Thank you for your review.
Comment from Mystic Angel 7777
This meets the contest requirements nicely as you deliver a well constructed 5-7-5 expressing the season of winter. The content is clever as you express your disdain for the season metaphorically. Good luck in the voting and thank yo very much for sharing it.

Its true, Winter brings nothing but pain as it precedes spring. Nothing compares with Springs beauty. I thought an ode though was to decorate and revere something.

Well, I must say I agree with you. Spring is my favorite season. Winter seems to last forever and spring/summer go too fast. Much luck in the contest with this nice entry. Marilyn

Hooray for Spring! Thank you for your review.
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written 5-7-5 ode to winter. While the snow is still visible on the mountain tops, Spring starts to sprout in the valley, not able to wait till winter is finally gone to make time for Spring.

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
What a great idea to call winter a footstool to spring! I shall remember that when Winter starts, spring is my favourite time of year, especially May, your words are a joy to read, love Dolly x

Comment from Gail Denham
Winter here is feeding the voracious wood stove all day long - my husband out with his tractor plowing driveway so we can get out. No time to survey the wonders of the mountains altho they're sure gorgeous.
Nice poem

This one is a great write and ode to winter. I like the seasons, I must say. Not much better than a roaring fire, snow and good company, well unless you add a glass of champagne into the mix - lol
Good luck. This is beauty!
