Congrats on this little beauty. You have captured it perfectly in so few syllables allowed. I wish I had a six left to bestow. Perfect pairing with the photo too. - Wendy

Reading your poem makes me feel chilled to the bones. I'm so glad that we are experiencing spring even though we have the upset of the virus. I hope we can beat this stuff!

    Dear Rosemary, I was hoping readers would feel the "chill" I wanted to bring out in the poem. Thank you for your review. I won first place in the contest. Dovemarie

Brrrrrr.... Never been in the mountains in the winter, but to behold them from the valley is gorgeous! :) Great 'ode' to the cold season!! ;) :) Thanx for sharing and best of luck at the polls! ;)

Although the contest requirements were for a 5-7-5 poem about "winter", and yours is a 5-5-5, I loved it so much, that I still wanted to grant it 5 stars.
The poem, together with the beautiful photo, shows me all the majesty of snow, cold, and winter.
Well done!

Nice 5-7-5 prompt entry. The artwork compliments your very visual words and made me feel a bit chilly reading it. I prefer the heat of the sun, but I've lived in the mountains for years. Your description in right on target. Best regards.
