Mirror, mirror, mocking, merry, How your scars are growing scary. Winter’s wonders want to tarry, Tucking tight with white the prairie.

this reads like a little weather warning, the first line is delicious to say, like lines to a favourite new song.

Very lovely indeed. For what it’s worth, I think writing a short verse that captures the scene is as hard as writing a short story that has it all inside.

This must have been hard to do…packing good rhyme, meaning and feeling into a short ditty. But you did it! Love it 🙂
