A Sight To Behold

It was a sight to behold, 

But the atmosphere was so cold.

All around me was a bed of snow,

Because of which I got frostbite on my toe.

 

Nature was resplendent with all its might,

When all of a sudden I saw somebody flying a kite.

It said it's winter,

When friends indulge in light banter.

 

The landscape was marvelous,

Gentle and harmless.

The entire area was white,

Pristine and bright.

 

It shone in the faint sunshine,

I thought it to be a splatter of red wine.

I wondered if it was the iridescent snow spreading hues of the rainbow,

Stomping on it I realized, it was the threatening phenomenon of red snow.
