Nice job with the alliteration. You also have some strong imagery in it, that conjures the whirlwind snows and the sleight of hand that makes the world vanish into thin air. Nature as the ultimate magician. estory

Both the poem and the artwork gave me a chill--as you intended, I think.
You have surely made good use of your seventeen syllables. Great use of
metaphor and personification. Should that be "sleight"?

This is a nicely written poem that fits the prompt well. I like the metaphor, alliteration in the poem and the artwork that illustrates it.
Good luck with the prompt.

The most magical memory I have ever had concerning Winter is that I survived 20 months in North Dakota, spent largely outside in brutal Winter weather and I somehow survived. I do not believe that I will ever suffer conditions more harsh than that which I have already been through. I love the composition of this poem, it gave me shivers. LOL.

An interesting presentation of winter's two sides with the implied metaphor that it is a wolf/wild thing dressed up in magic's clothes. Nice illustration.

You've written an excellent, clever 5-7-5 poem for the winter contest
with very good imagery and use of alliteration.
Yes, I agree that winter is a trickster,
turning water to ice, brown to white;
fortunately his also disappears at the end of his act.
Nicely done with excellent photograph.
Good luck in the contest.
