Winter At Our Door Sometimes, the winter winds will creep Into our world while we're asleep And wake us with an icy roar To tell us winter's at our door! In other years, it will appear With gentle snow and it is clear Although it seems to be no threat, It will leave piles we won't forget! No matter how it's ushered in, The moment that it does begin, I start to count the days before They'll lengthen towards the spring once more. I watch the calendar and clock, Waiting for the birds to flock To the feeders I put out, To catch the eyes of those about. Soon it's warm enough for me To go outside myself and see Other signs that mean the days Are welcoming the sun's warm rays! Betty Lou Hebert |

I feel the same way Betty Lou. Nicely done. the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |

Ooh so nice to have a picture of you. And I echo your sentiments about the winter. I count on seeing some days in February that will let me linger in the garden for a spell. Happy New Year to you and yours. Love, Joyce |

Artic Wind: Thanks for your comments. I am a little disenchanted with winter this year. Over 4 feet of snow and still coming! Betty Lou Betty Lou Hebert |
