Come along with me on a winter walk.  It's been a beautiful couple of days.

A Winter Walk

I wandered through the frozen wood
And marveled at the sight
Of branches blanketed with snow
The world a glorious white

I wondered how it could ever be real
That this beauty could be so near
While the world's wars continued battling on,
There was no sign of it here

So I continued walking through the snow
And breathed deep that crisp, fresh air
And became lost in the magic of this wonderous place
​That knows not of despair.

The Chickadee

A happy chickadee did sing
Its simple little song
Brought joy back to the desolate land
That's missed it for so long.

A Winter Rest

The snow has come yet once again
To cover the weary land
And grant it rest from long summer days
And the work of the farmer's hand

No plows or discs can break this ground
The Earth demands her rest
And so the winter comes and snuggles in
The  weary world into her breast

Nature's Cover

The naked trees put on their dress
Of icicles to cover
Their cold winter bones 
With a glorious dress 
That the sun soon will uncover
