for your arrival each winter
when all is right
you manifest
growing under starlight
your faceted form
reflects the beauty of our world
in a heightened way
my heart ignites
with a wild mix
ecstatic life
utter serenity
the mastery of an ice crystal

ReplyDeleteHello, Tammie Lee.
ReplyDeleteThe molding of the Nature is really mysterious.

U.S.A. is very large!
