A very well-written minute poem about winter that comes to take away the color and makes everything gray when the snow covers up the ground until Spring comes to rescue us.

We moved from the North because of the cold. Snow is beautiful, to see, not to drive in it.
Hugs, Trisha
Comment from Therese Caron
You've done a lovely job portraying winter. The only time the sun is bright is when it is blinding, reflecting off the new white snow. Your picture is beautiful, with the flashes of red berries contrasting against the white snow. And by the way, I live where we have 8 to 9 months of winter a year, so you're talking to a pro! This is a beautiful poem.

Plattsburgh, NY 30 minutes from Canada, right on Lake Champlain and in the Adirondack mountains. A ferry ride from Vermont.

I used to live in NY can?t take the cold anymore, so now I complain about the hot summers!

Last year I told my closest friend that my goal for 2019 was no complaining. She said ?then what are we going to talk about?? 🤣

Comment from Mystic Angel 7777
This meets the contest requirements nicely with correct rhyme scheme and line / syllable count throughout. These are supposed to be written in strict iambic pentameter which you execute well in the short lines, but the opening lines of each stanza are a bit rocky on that score. Good luck in the judging and thank you very much for sharing it.

Comment from Alex Rosel
Fall slowly concedes to Winter is an unusual way to describe the transition of the seasons; I like it {thumbs up}.
I also like Fragile White lace flakes fall on ground. White lace flakes is great imagery. However, even though I realize poets play fast and loose with grammar, I'm not sure why "White" is capitalized.
I wish you the best of luck when the contest is judged {smiles}.
