Oh Winter...

The mellowing light The slanting rays The silent sky The cream clouds The tender breeze The soft mist The swaying curtain white Everything tells me In a melodious whisper- Winter is beautiful. -Priyashna. Photo credit- Redbubble.

@MattMeng Snow... I haven't seen a snowfall yet. It must be very magical isn't it? I wait for the day when I will see it with my own eyes but outside that, the tropical winter (which I have tried to capture in the poem) is definitely beautiful.

@arthurchappell I don't blame you for that. In your place, winter must be very harsh. Despite the beauty of the falling snow, the battering cold winds definitely don't add to the comfort I presume. But here in the tropics, the summer is a nightmare and the the winter is a "midsummer night's dream." Thank you for the compliment anyway.

Very nice poem. I do think winter is beautiful although it is freezing cold where I live. I like to go out and see the frost on the grass and all of the trees turned to white ghosts.

@Magicweaver1 Thank you so much for your compliments! Truth be told, I have never seen a snow fall yet let alone walk deep in snow. But the kind of winter I have been experiencing for the twenty years of my life that I have lived, I find it inexpressibly beautiful. Not harsh at all. I live in a wonderful tropical area where winter unfolds in all it's mellow magnificence. I try my best to capture it though.
