Faith,
Nice ambiance poem. For some reason, snow does make things quiet.
Your photo is nice and your words give me some comfort because I really don't like the winter: it's cold and dark. (The sun is scarce in winter where I come from).
Good luck with this poem and all of your writing.
Have a wonderful thanksgiving,
Blessings,
Cindy

nice haiku about snow. Here in Korea, we get snow occasionally. Not quite as much in recent years, winter starts now in late December as opposed to late November and lasts until February not March. Shorter more intense winters, longer hotter summers. fortunately not too many wild fires.

A good entry for the contest. Everything looks so clean after the snow falls. You have chosen a good picture to illustrate. The snow has come a bit early this year.

So very true, at least where you come from. Well having said that, north of Spain usually gets to a lot snow during the winter. But I'm at the Med, and we don't get that. I loved your wee poem. Ulla:)))

Yes, the countryside can seem to quieten for a time, snow seems to have a magical affect on the countryside for a time, could it be the effect of purity, or is that an illusion? Beautifully written, good luck, blessings Roy

Thank you for your kind words. I'm sure there is probably some scientific term that I don't know for snow's effect on sound. But it doesn't seem very poetic. I appreciate you taking the time to read and comment.

A pleasure
Comment from Celyn
This is beautiful description of what the after effects of a snowfall are like. The poem has the correct number of syllables for the 5-7-5 contest and I can almost see the snow and feel the peacefulness after it has stopped. The last line is also good as it brings us back to reality after dreaming in the snow - well done and good luck with it.

Comment from harmony13
The first two lines of this poem flow and connect well. The last line
puts the poem all together. I thought about the quietness, as the author,
wrote and how I remember it bringing me to silent place. The poem
flows and connects well. The artwork goes with this poem.
Hi Faith, have a wonderful Thanksgiving!...Maria

This 5-7-5, Magic of Snow, has the proper formatting and notes the immediate dampening of the sounds. Soon though, children and outdoorsers will be playing.

This is lovely. Here in Minnesota we have too much of this winter snow...but it is very beautiful while it's here. I really like this contest entry, best of luck to you.

Even if it's brief, I'll take the peace and quiet. Very soothing poem that captures the beauty of fresh snow on a winter's day. Nice entry for the contest.
