Snow

*Acrostic*

Softly fluttering to the ground

New blankets coating the tiny town

Opening worlds of adventure

Wonders await

Author's Note

Simple poem inspired by the sights outside my window.

Short and accurate! Such are the wonders of snow. And haven't you guys had a hell of a snow season!? Those snowstorms have been plastered all over our news downunder.

The simplicity of the acrostic is suited to the words used. A perfect style to ease back into the poetic writing frame of mind.

Nicely conceived, Clifford.

Oh, yes. We have mountains of snow. It's very inconvenient, not to mention messy, but there is beauty in the snow-covered trees and massive snowbanks. Thanks for reading, Doodley.

I remember when I was younger and there was always alot of snow. Now, a few years later we rarely get snow before christmas. I live in Wisconsin and today it was in the 40s!

It was much the same here, in Minnesota. Christmas was hardly white at all, but in the days since, we've gotten about two feet of snow. Tis the season, to be sure.

I go to minnesota every year for thanksgiving and there used to be tons of snow by that time, but I haven't seen snow in minnesota since I was 13. No complaints, though. Snow is too slippery and cold.

Usually acrostics bore me to death but this was really good and I enjoy the visual I got of it in my head. Snow-free where I lived this year so I'll take and love what I can get ;)

[Jacob Clifford]

I'm glad you enjoyed it, Lavi. Thank you for stopping by.

Unfortunately I've never had the opportunity to experience snowfall, its one of the things I crave for! I'm sure a world all snowy would be as adventurous and wondrous as your words suggest. Really liked this!

[Jacob Clifford]

Thanks, Zoe. I hope you get to experience snow some day.

[Zoya]

I hope so, too. You are welcome.

I love acrostic poems! Haven't done one in awhile & your perfect crafting makes me want to try one again! I'm not a fan of snow, but your delicate words make me want to imagine the wonder (((HUGS))) fondly, Margie

Winter has always seemed like a magical time to me. The entire world transforms, and when I was a kid, my front yard became a place ready for adventure.Thank you for appreciating my poem.

Thank you for this added share, which I could easily visualize (you as a kid in the snow) *smile*
