Favorite wintry memory

Submitted by Hon on Tue, 2022-12-06 12:01

December comes in a sign
of winter form
when mother nature is
putting every flourish
into sleep at rest
in a calm scenery
covering up the earth
in a white blanket of snow
driving everything into decay
showcase in a gloomy stage
trees are going barren
with falling leaves
flowers are fading
losing its splendor color
fresh cold icy droplet
sitting on the branch
filled with frozen air
capturing a sight
of emptiness
in the heart of Ice Land

Hi, Hon,
Beautiful! I love the multitude of words put together to form this wonderful visual of December. I think my favorite word is "showcase." It reminds me of the glass snowballs, but with more honesty and appreciation.
Thank you,
Lavender

I am also hibernating
wintry chilly no snow
breezy wind and chilled rain are worse
in Ontario
met said so
stay inside be warm

I was a bit reluctant to comment for those who don't respond back to others' comments on their poetry.
Anyways, I decided to comment on this one to say that this is a really good entry. I thought all is giving the judges a hard time.
Just wished that you'd throw some punctuation to guide the reader easily through.
Just me.
Wish you the best.
