Transformation of White
My world, as far as I can see
Dressed in winter white
Snow covered
Long icicles hang from down spouts
The wind wails no more
All is quiet
The storm over
Neither rain nor snow expected
Yesterday, I saw your footprints
In the snow
You, a large white dog
I called your name
You stood your ground
I could not see your movements
And yet you disappeared
Into a white world
The roads glazed with ice
Travel on wheels dangerous
Winter a time of transformed beauty
Tomorrow will depend on the sun's warmth

Oh I hope the white dog visits you again. Your desert must be beautiful under snow. Here we have sunshine and it is warm as a spring day. We are not having winter this year, apparently, other than big waves. Off to find some today!
Warm wishes.luv your winter wonderland write
Much☺love
What a great picture of a surprise meeting on a cold winter's day.
This wonderland sounds beautiful.
Your winter is exquisitely rendered ....
We are all pioneering explorers in the snow! I was walking with you.
Love the last line, and love it so much. Today might shape tomorrow, but tomorrow will still depend on itself.
Luminously rendered ~
The white dog is a pleasant whimsy, worth dwelling on for the various possible interpretations that arise.
I love the appearance of the white dog. Reality? A vision? Who knows! But it was definitely a sight to behold in the storm!
A well written argument that tell's us "to wake up!"

Wonderfully rendered - and that last line leaves behind a plethora of nuanced echoes, in its wake. Lovely!
A poem to stir the imagination, for sure! I am very happy to be in a position to only imagine snow, as I hate the cold, yet you show me it has its own beauty – and oh yes, I too am enthralled by the idea of that magnificent dog.
Love that last line... !!!
The image of the large white dog disappearing "Into a white world" is so captivating and poignant almost like a sweet reverie being snapped....Beautiful.
Love the description if this white wonderland. Hope the dog reappears.
