Flurries swirling on earth's mighty gale
covering miles without fail, wintry
clean; thus multiplying man's suffering.
Every trace of green eliminated
devestatingly happy; Robin's song
get a much need rest; slops of ivory
coming down snowy mountain side's
to Mom's hot chocolate discussions.
What do blizzards brings;
is it holiday cheer?

A very nice image you painted here, and yes, besides cold, wet feet, I suppose blizzards bring holiday cheer as well. Who wants to look out the window and see green leaves during the winter? Not me...
Just a note, I'm sure in line 3 you meant "multiplying" and not "mutiplying" as you wrote, just a tiny typo.
I love you,

Nicely done novy. It's cold here today. I'll make a hot chocolate for you also. It dipped into the high 50's last night. I still miss the snow at Christmas time.
