The name winter makes me feel cold.

I guess this witch likes us to be cold

Turns any type of heat away.

The heat is turned up to keep us warm

By someone who knows it is very cold.

This is great artwork that compliments your winter's woe perfectly. Love the final line, sounds almost like you are shouting it out loud.

Great ise of word imagery and a very good choice of picture.
Even though she is portrayed as a witch there still sems to be something magical about winter and I feel you have captured this also.
I really enjoyed it.

We need Glenda the Good Witch of Spring. I like the picture in show us kids handle winter better than adults.

I like the flow of this acrostic poem. I think if you put 'whose' on the second line you will have close to a monorhyme poem. Soul would be a slant rhyme.

keep writing

    I appreciate your suggestions. If I did that it would no longer be an acrostic, as it spells Winter with the first letters in each line. Thank you for your nice review.

    I realized that after I posted and reread the poem. Sorry.
