Sugary hills.

Cold-biting breezes sweep sugary hills

as autumn is bitten by wintery chills.

And silky white snowdrifts, frozen in time,

enfold, like waves suspended.

Heavenly jewels sparkle bright

on powdered seas, where diamonds shine.

They shimmer on fields in tides of snow,

winking their crystal eyes at those

who promised their lover the stars.

On kitten's feet, they come at night,

adrift like feathers, floating light;

swaying to the hush of a Christmas song

whose winter chorus flutters along

to the lyrics

    of a whispering wind.

love your use of figurative language... each season brings its own joys and you capture winter perfectly...

I am glad you commented on mind because I don't know if or when I would have discovered these gems :)
