At the risk of sounding clche: This is 'beautiful' imagery.
At the risk of loosing a friend before you make one, first thought: wings don't fall.
second thought: how delightful it could have been if it were 'flying like lace crystal wings' instead.
third thought: Richard's given it more thought than I have, I'll go with the poet.
last thought: I wonder if this what he meant by 'meaningful reviews'.

Greetings, Mr. Abrams 🍃

Thank you sincerely for selecting one of my humble poems to read and critique, for the encouraging compliment, and for sharing your wonderings and thoughts of my own intentions and meanings.
True, normally "wings don't fall," but imaginary lace crystal snowflake wings do. The thought of "snowflakes" flying and soaring up and about (to me) creates a different imagery than that of my mind's-eye … and, I'm thinking to interpret such metaphor literally would undo its intent of fantasy wonderment.
I think your review is in the upper register in meaning, in that it is open, honest, and well-intended toward inspiringly helping to better this piece and my penmanship.

What more could a hopeful bard wish from one of his astute readers than this?

Blessings, my fine new friend! ⁓ Richard 🍂

hope you will check out some of my writes, i am just learning a Triolet form... Hope you have a great day.

I'll make it a point to, Kesch.

The Triolet is a rather complex poetic form, one from you I look forward to enjoying.

Bless you for all your lovely reviews today.

A NICELY WRITTEN SEYNRU RICHARD, BUT AS TEXAS TEXANS YOU KNOW THAT WE HAVE’NT HAD MANY OPPORTUNITIES TO ACTUALLY SEE SNOWFLAKES LARGE ENOUGH OR CLOSE TO ACTUALLY APPRECIATE THE BEAUTY OF THEM… SO THEY ARE NOT VERY SPECIAL TO ME AT ALL. BUT YOU KNOW BEING A TEXAS GIRL i AM A TUBE TOP/SHORTS KINDA GIRL. LOL! Mj

[Richard🖌]

Well, Mary Jo,
The years I lived in St. Louis and Milwaukee, I had the opportunity to see many falling snowflakes; some drifting down in the soft, still silence, the size of a quarter … every one uniquely different. You could catch them on your mittens and watch them until they melted … some took as long as 15 seconds. Beeeautiful, indeed!
But, nothing quite equals a long-legged Texas Gal in tank top and tight shorts.😋

Thanks for such a delightful review! ⁓ Richard 🍃

[heavenscentgirl1]

Blushing SMILE. 😊👍😇🤗

You're a lovely snowflake in your own sweet way.

Warmest winter hugs! ⁓ Richard 🍃
