The First Snow of the Season
Published 10th Jan 2019
Author's Note
I wrote this one for a visual poetry competition with winter as the theme. I really wanted the word sparkle to shine, but couldn't find the effect that I was looking for. Enjoy :)

Thanks for the comment! You made it to the poem before I added the image, though. Since you're the first person to see it, please let me know if it's easily legible. Thank you again!

h; yes it's legible - the white stands out well on the dark background, however, i may have chosen a san serif font for ease of reading.
Thanks for the helpful advice and feedback. I am attached to this font and its elegance, but took into consideration what you said. Here is a link to an alternate version of it with different font:

You're right about that. I did it again but in a less abrasive font. Thanks. I also included a version with the same fancy font, but with the poem centered to see what people prefer.
