Winter has arrived
and it’s two inches deep.
I think it would be good
to just go back to sleep.

©December 29, 2003
Whispers in the wind
grow much quieter.
Ocher blades of grass
barely stir in the breeze.

A coverlet of white
cushions the scene.
Naught has come
to soil winter’s new page.

What might be etched
upon this day’s journal?
O, that it may be love and kindness
spawned by eternity’s King.

©December 29, 2003


Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Lovely winter writes Virginia.

Hugs~

    In the midst of winter..
I found there lives within me,
    an invincible summer.

Virginia,  wouldn't it be such a treat to
open up the news...and see nothing but
good things...without terror and death being
so much a part of our day?   The snow,  
pure and white...before the first steps...
such peace.

Thanx for this,  it brings one to thought...
and dreams.
