A Frosty Forest

Icicles grow on frosty vines,
Swaying through the trees
The bluish shade about to shine,
A forest founded by fairies.
A thick blanket of snow,
Invaded the pathway
The temperature drops to zero,
And the cold freezes the bay.
The bluish shade is quite colourful,
As the wintry flowers stay
This forest, amazingly wonderful,
Is joy in my springing day.
Lovely cottony snow,
Dropped like graceful rain
Enhancing the frosty stones,
Onto a shiny white lane.
