Contradiction
Winter is both harrowing and breathtaking.32 total reviews
Comment from Sally Law
Greetings from Florida. However, I lived near Niagara Falls, New York for seven year with my family and know this cold and beauty very well. I especially loved Goat Island near the Falls where the rising mist would freeze the trees and coat everything white. A fine winter white offering for the contest.
Sending you my best today as always,
Sally :)

Oh yes, winter has two sides to her personality, she is beautiful and she also has a chilling heart. We need to embrace her because we have no choice, a poignant write, love Dolly x

Comment from Dancemom
I really like this. The title is perfect, because winter is a contradiction between beauty and danger. Very well written. Great job and thank you for sharing.

Comment from Patty Palmer
It won't be very long until it's going to be looking just like this picture! And nothing wakes you up quicker in the morning like scraping snow and ice off of your car windows.
It's beautiful as long as I don't have to drive in it!
Nice poem and beautiful picture!
God bless!

I think this is a good entry for the 2-5-2 writing prompt.
Your short verse describes winter very well.
Well done and good luck to you with the contest.

It is a paradox, isn't it? This is a very nicely composed short piece. Good wording and you've made a true statement. We may hate the inconvenience of snow, but winter surely is beautiful. Best of luck in the contest. Marilyn

This is an all-around beauty, replete with imagery! Fine idea, execution, and illustration!
(Not bad at all, in only nine syllables.)

Wow! Spoken/Written like a true Northeasterner who knows and appreciates winter. We border Canada on the other coast so we have much milder winters. Hope you stay safe and the power stays on!

Comment from Raffaelina Lowcock
Sometimes, now, I wonder which is more beautiful, Summer, Autumn, Winter or Spring? Winter is so awesome as your picture here depicts. It has a surreal beauty that does not compare with anything else. A lovely presentation.

This is a very nice poem. I live in the Chicago area so I know about ice
and snow. But the trees are pretty. Good luck in the contest with this
2-5-2 poem.
