Someone painted pictures on my
Windowpane last night —
Willow trees with trailing boughs
And flowers, frosty white,
And lovely crystal butterflies;
But when the morning sun
Touched them with its golden beams,
They vanished one by one!
This poem is in the public domain.

One blizzard here in NYC many, many years ago, such a frost appeared on one of our windowpanes. It looked like "Bambi" - I could not resist snapping a photo. Lo and behold upon entering in a photo slide competition in my Camera Club, I won an "Honorable Mention." Thank you for the remembrance.

I had never read this poem before and I am so glad to be left with that perfect image on the windowpane. I will never look at a frosted window in the same way - ever again -thanks!
