Glittering silver scales of a brook dace Slivers 'neath ice of fast cold mountain streams Moving magic shown on crystal ball's face Shrouded in her eyes an ol' gypsy gleams
Cast adrift in the night the heavens' bring Tiny clusters of far'way sparkly things Voices of angels serenading sing Floating notes reflected off golden wings
Gazing snowswept fields in moonbeams' glimmer Tiny icicles sway from pine branch boughs Flocking night birds silver saucers' shimmer Up and over the drifting swirling snows
Giant unblinking golden eyes still search When seen high upon a dead tree I perch

Just imagining completely looking through the eyes of a great snowy owl in this one....
