Snowcapped lace in Sunshine
Nature shrouded in icy perfection.
Today dawns with the beginning of frost
battling with the sun for relevance.
Ethereal mists
O'er snow-capped heights...tender lace
Nature's shroud embraced
'''''''''
Yawning...dewdrops spill
Wrapped in icy perfection
Day awakens...earth frozen
..........
Sleepy eyes open languidly
wrapped in hearth's warmth
The sun shivers knowingly
It's got work to do
........
It may not yet winter be
But Hearts know well the seasons
They speak, we listen
With open minds...
we see the first frosts approach
Beyond the veil...Infinite it stretches
Beyond time... it speaks in icy tones
Through the thickets...chill approaches
Encouraging fortitude, for winter too
Soon will enter the stillness, not far behind
Nature whispers sweet nothings to the land
soothing it to a new beginnings
Winter's first frost a warning -
On snow capped lace.

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.

Ah, such a calm peaceful symphony to bless the senses with holiday cheer. i exhale a thankful sigh.
This reads like a gentle walk through a waking winter landscape serene, poetic and wonderfully immersive.
This poem really captures that sharp feeling when the frost first hits. You used such lovely images to describe the sun and the cold battling it out. A great look at the start of winter.
This was gorgeously wonderful. Loved your poem!
Such beautiful seasonal imagery. Loved this!
