Comment from elchupakabra
Yay! An original piece about snow that doesn't beat me over the head with worn out cliches. I thought this was an excellent five seven five that made great use of a subtle alliteration in warm white to tie the whole thing together nicely. Great work, thanks for sharing.

My backyard is getting more snow in a day or two I'm told. The red birds look like tree ornaments against the brilliant white. Thanks for the wonderful review and fun comments. :-) Carolyn
Comment from Silent1rose
LOL. Sometimes I wish we had snow here, but I get to thinking, and I second guess myself. I wouldn't want to drive in the snow. I'd be so scared. I think it snows in NC though, and I'm moving there the end of next year. I enjoyed this poem. I loved the line 'nocturnal head trip'. It's a nice way to describe a dream. :). ~ Rose

Yes girl, you might not get snow in Alabama, but you will see some in NC. Although I think it is in select areas. I am glad you enjoyed this one Rose. Snow is pretty but nasty to drive in. Have a great week, :-) Carolyn
Comment from Petriesan
the tropics are over-rated. . .the picture from your back yard reminds me of mine and the hot tub in it and when things look like this are the best times to sit in it.
I do like the phrase nocturnal head trip though

I don't have a hot tub outside but I have been in one while it snowed. That is an awesome experience. The only thing is, I almost froze when I stood up. LOL Thanks for the great review and rating. :-) Carolyn

I don't think there is any doubt we will have a white Christmas, at least in many neighborhoods. We are leaving for Phoenix, AZ on the 18th, if it is warm enough I may 'lay out' just because I can. LOL . Thanks dear Maureen for this great review. Glad you liked my backyard. :-) Carolyn
