Original DDE™ surrealistic art: “Crystalline Cozy” by: rob kistner © 11/6/23
Here in moonlit forest, midnight’s snowfall shimmers deep and still, through the boughs of old growth, like a dance of stars. It blankets our high-mountain meadow in crystal down.
This night fell quiet and crisp. A great white owl echoes through frosted cedars. We breathe deep this winter nocturne wrapped in sweet reverie. You by firelight, in my arms, your face aglow.

We entwine, deep in passion’s arms, by winter’s window. With dreams and one another, we sleep — a mid-winter midnight sleep, beneath frosted moonlight, crystalline stars a’dance above. Then you awaken saying, we’ve got to go down the mountain, I’ve work in the morning!
I tell myself I don’t want to go. Looking out the window, it’s snowing heavy. I’ll tell her sorry, too much snow! Yes, that’s it! Using the snow would be the easy way out of having to leave. Perfect!

Excellent mood and yes snow is great way not have to part. Being snowlocked in a cosy cabin may take the relationship to the next level.
There is some romantic element to snow. I think it’s because it will isolate you with friends or lovers it helps you feel safe abd secure — and it helps slows you down — it’s beautiful look at this my feelings about it.
Your Prosery piece is so romantic, Rob! A moonlit forest, a dance of stars and the hoot of an owl, who would want to leave for work? Snow is a great excuse to stay in bed.
I’m just a romantic at heart Kim, so I enjoyed writing this. I would enjoy actually experiencing this but thank you. I’m glad you found it romantic.
Very romantic. I hope it works out for them!
Thank you Merril, me too… 😉
Love this especially; “We breathe deep this winter nocturne wrapped in sweet reverie.” 🙂 Snow has so many elements to it, doesn’t it?
Thank you Sanaa… 🙂
Love your story and the art you used!!!!
Thank you Helen very much. 🙂
Excellent, charming, and romantic. Well done, Rob.
Thank you Bill, very much… 🙂
I do love being snowed in and as long as my cats and fish are warm and happy, it doesn’t bother me. Been a long time since being snowed in with someone. All the better 🙂
Since moving out if the Oregon foothills, snow here st sea level is rare. In the 8 years Kathy and I have lived here we only snow accumulate maybe 3 times. Alex only had one, maybe 2 “snow day” where school was cancelled. Now 90 minutes away there is snow pack 24/7/365 near the timberline, and a glacier above the timberline — so winter sports are available year round to those who love their skiing (downhill or cross country), snowboarding, and luge or bobsledding. Winter sports equipment shops everywhere.n
