Ahhh the ups'n'downs and ins'n'outs of the grand cycle of life. Beautifully written with great imagery! Good luck in the contest. If you have time take a look at my acrostic 'Peace Within', it's just gone ATB.
LiveLove'n'Peace, Garth

Very nice capturing of the personification of winter! loved the two sides of her, and then, finally, the lovely landscape contrast, which, after all, is winter's real gift, yes?
"And when my light sets
There is
Black velvet and starlight
Above me
And glittered alabaster below me" - beautiful!!! :)Sharyn

Comment from mystery poet
You have a strong write for the contest.
Your first stanza gives the reader the
idea that this is about you but, then the
next two uses descriptions of a wintery
day and 'glittered alabaster below'.
Best of luck!

But there are days when joy covers me like a blanket made of diamonds and a doe and her baby stand out like a masterpiece. I like the flow of this creative poem. Nicely done. Deorre

Comment from Thomas Raine
This hits home for me, as I feel washed-out at the moment, kind of wanderlust and roaming down paths I ought to not venture upon.
Your imagery easily paints in my mind's eyes the coldness of this time of year.
Good write, my friend,

And glittered alabaster below me
A wonderful write to personify winter. I can't think of any better to do it. It's so warm.
