I loved the expression "a frosty tear is falling delicately down", your poem had a nice rhythm and the acrostic was perfect.

I like how you wrote an acrostic poem for this contest and followed the rules correctly. The image is magical and the personification is clear.

Lost my first reply for some reason. Thank you so much wordareus for your kind review.

I like how you leave the personification until the last line. I am not sure I understand the place of the fourth line in the progression of the poem; would you be so kind as to explain it to me? The true test of an acrostic (I'll be teaching them in November) is whether the vertical word matches the content of the poem and it does so well here. (You want the singular possessive "Nature's", not the plural "Natures", in the last line.) Good juxtaposition of picture and poem.

It's my love of wintertime that I was trying to put over. Thanks for your very kind and helpful review.

You have created a fine personification of icy winter and the coldness of your love. So you have created two poems simultaneously and very neatly. Nice work. -Ekim777

Very beautiful picture and lovely lines complimenting it. A frosty tear is falling...such a lovely line. The Acrostic form of poetry very well maintained.

Comment from Charmane
Excellent write. The chill of winter makes her frosty entrance. Icy frost soothes.Tears. fall to grace the icy chill. I like the play on the words in regard to the dampness in the air.
