Winter’s Savor

coarse sea salt
appears to dress each surface
crystalline stars,
lacy diamonds
cling to the chill

seems to be seasoning our world
giving it a cool, crisp flavor
easy to appreciate this side of the glass

Thanks, all, glad you enjoyed. And Startime, I'm quite a ways inland, 230 miles minimum from the closest coast. However, the snow or ice or a combination of whatever is out there today closed resembled coarse sea salt. That's why I used...appears to be...
