Winter hides the sun and stars It whips winds near and far The days and nights cold and frost Winter never seems to sleep or to be lost At every turn an icicle forms And drips its sweat with never a warn We ache for spring and summer sun Winters here seem to run out of fun Scraping frost and gray skies abound Winter driving a slippery slide Winter often says stay inside But when a snow comes and we can play It seems the gray gets sent away We slide – we roll Snow angels come and visit Now with this wonderful diversion Winter isn’t so bad is it????? |

If only we could all remember this, huh? Nicely done, Paul.. I think winter was made for kids...they seem to be the only ones that don't huddle indoors...staring outside...thinking "summer" |

Goodknight, slippery sliding in the snow? The thought temporarily took off ten years in me! I enjoyed reading and feeling the winter times! Happy writing to you, ~Sadelite~ |

(smiles) Yay! (rolls around in snow and makes snow cherubs) Hehehe! (giggles with boyish delight) This is sooooooo adorable, sweet friend, I believe every season has its blessings and though spring is my favorite and happiest season winter can be so uplifting too if you have loved ones near laughing, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Paul, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "You'll find something that's enough to keep you |
