Ode to 17--1/2 Inches of Snow!!
Snow, freshly fallen
upon a ground oh so
frozen
Day time snow starting
as flurries
animals and wildlife to
their homes quickly
scurries
Heavily now; the flakes
with fury
by my window they are
a fluttering
I--safely watching
inside
pretty, but so
cold
It freezes one's toes
and even their
nose
A quite be falls
No sound but the
wind
Swishing and at times
a haunting howling
The fields so clean
and white
What a beautiful
site!
Clean, glistening
as if fairies scattered
diamond dust
amongest us
Trees icend with snow
white
Mountain tops laced
also with white
A wonderful site!
But dangerous it can
be
To nature one must give
respect
Though it can be a beauty
can be brutal
Night fall fallens ; temps
too
they are falling well
below !
As diamonds sparkle;
twinkling
like jewels brightly
glistening
So nice to be tucked safely
inside by warmth of
fireside
My blessing I count
many I have found
Leisurely I can
For tis inside I am
long bound!
We moved into our new home we built ; on our small farm in Sept
of 2009
Many new things we have seen
This blizzard was a first
Since 1969/ and the one in March 1993
A long time I will remember this one

I haven't been posting much;
This time of the year is really not for me
It is such a down time for me.

Sheila, thta's beautiful. But way too much snow! It's good to see you back. Where have you been? I guess maybe snowbound without power. I know W.V. got slammed, too. I hope all is well there and you have a very merry CHRISTmas!
