Confectioner's Delight by Christel Crewsnaked trees dipped in sugar
pines draped in white fur
marshmallows crunch beneath my feet
men of snow evading heat
crispness fills the air
children playing, families near
candy-coated chocolate mounds
we drive along the slushy rounds
one more glance upon the scene
before it melts back into my dreams

Author's Note: first real snow in the ohio river valley and this southern girl is loving it!
