I love winter scenes
of iced over streams
snow-laden branches
Oh how winter entrances!

I like a sleigh ride
through a country side
dressed in white
the pony's breath visible
the moonlit snow all aglow
the hot apple cider
awaiting me at home

The roaring fire
in the fire place
The soaring smile
on my child's face
The Christmas lights
and manger scene
The silent nights
so serene
The clearest stars
I've ever seen
The carefully thought out gifts
Winter is not to be missed!
