Out in the white clad
White carpet woods
It is not quiet
Though I can barely hear a sound
Just the whispered
Crystal tumble of snowfall
In the melt
And a breathless thump
As another branch
Slips off a sleeve
And lets it fall
Seductively at my feet

Brilliant! I especially liked the last stanza, the imagery is great with the 'slips off a sleeve'. The syntax of the poem is perfect too. The nice short lines conveys the snowfall very effectively.
Thanks!
Stephen.

Well written. Sounds a good
crispy crunchy day! Look very nice!
But when comes of the roof quite scary!
thump? Lovely poem. Like the line.
Just the whispered
Crystal tumble of snow fall.
Oh! congrats: on the cherries!
