Fairyland

Last night at bedtime the ground was white
With snow softly falling all through the night
Early this morning we had some rain
Then the temperature dropped to freezing again

The trees are dressed in their very best
Sparkling and shimmering from trunk to crest
The sun is peeking through low white clouds
Highlighting the tree’s beautiful shrouds

Even the house had a crystal glaze
Under the sunlight’s foggy haze
The walk has a cracked crystal glow
Edged on both sides by glistening white snow

As if someone with a magic wand
Created a fairyland from here to the pond
