Follow me * into a reverie * *1
*2
* * * * *3
* *4
Where I * recall how,* once, * * *5
* * * * * *6
* *7
On a winter's * night long,* long ago * * * * * * * *8
*I learned * how to see * beauty. * * * *9
* * * * * *10
*Simply by *looking around* me I found it; * * *11
* * * * * * *12
Deep in a * snow & frost * covered *pine forest * * * * * * *13
* * * * *14
With* the wind *howling through * the trees, * *15
* * * * * * * *16
Coming * across the great * Lake Michigan expanse * *17
* * * * * * *18
The * currents are * frigid and the frail * are fearful; * *19
* * * * * * * *20
Here, truly, only the strongest survive. * * * 21
* * * * * *22
Watching through * the trailer’s living * room window * *23
* * * * * * *24
Diamonds seem * to fall from the * sky; * * * *25
* * * * * * *26
In * reality snow * flakes float * in the night * * *27
* * * * * 28
And sparkle * under the street light * * * * 29
* * * * * * *30
You installed in *your driveway * * * *31
* * * * *32
To* bring to light * the night life * * * *33
* * * * * * * *34
Living deep * in the Mid*western * Michigan woods.* * * * * *35

I asked for stories. this is as a poem and all of the astrisks do nothing for me. I am sorry, but I do not consider this a valid entry for this contest.
Thank you.
