If you Brrrave the wind whistling through the Brrranches, you can Brrrush the snow off your Brrronco and drive to Brrrooks Brrrothers! Thank you for sharing. :-)

This poem is a great description of a cold winter's day. It follows the rules of the 3-5-7 contest and reads well. I particularly like the shivering trees, although I'm sure that they don't.
Good luck with it

Great description of the cold day using alliteration and personification. The word order of the last line made me wonder who was doing the "shuddering." If it were the trees, then the plural would require "shudder."
If it were the wind, then it would be singular.

    Thank you so much for your kind words. The wind was doing the shuddering, and therefore, the singular. I appreciate you checking.

This short succinct 3-5-7 format and the appropriate title captures the mood exactly of the chilly feel of winter around us- alliteration used to great effect

Great adjectives to describe the picture you have chosen. Your words make the reader feel like they are there, feeling the wind. This is a good entry for the contest.

Lovely image which complements the text! The combination of alliteration and onomatopoeia is very effective in conveying the power of the wind!
This meets the demands of the competition.
