I like this very much dear author. There is a "slight of hand" in taking this out of the box approach to the theme that makes me smile. I do hope you are richly rewarded for your originality--fine image choses to accompany your poem as well!

Ice Magician

Nice entry for the Ode To Winter writing prompt. Good syllables count and presentation. I love the picture. A friend used it for his profile for a while. It's very creepy.

I would connect the lines grammatically to improve the flow.

whirlwinds whine briskly

as slight of hand bites briskly --

Ice Magician's call

An unusual and inventive write as the magic of winter conjures up the ice and bitterly cold night winds here, there is a bite here that is slightly scary, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

Enjoyed your imaginative personification of winter as an "ice magician." Good use of alliteration in "whirlwinds whine" and "bites bitterly." Hope you do well in the contest.

One comment: In the second line, I think you mean "sleight of hand" not "slight." See https://www.merriam-webster.com/words-at-play/sleight-vs-slight-usage-legerdemain

During winter weather, anything can happen unexpectedly. Power outages, people being stranded in their cars can starve or freeze to death while hoping for someone can rescue them. Winter's magic can be not so magical after all. Good luck with the contest.

This is really great entry poet! Very, very unique.
Nice alliteration in whirlwinds whine and in bites bitterly.
Winter as an ice magician. It certainly can seem like that.
Great poem!
