Just listen to the sounds of a chilling winter morn
See the cleansing beauty of the falling winter storm.
Breathe the chilling coldness of the air all around
Feel the icy crystals gathered high upon the ground.
Hear the crunching sound of your boot prints in the snow
While waiting for the plow to sand with slow and easy flow.
Laughing children pushing sleds along the snow filled ground
You can smell the coffee brewing in the houses all around.
Yes It's the sounds of winter echoing through the air
Every winter season its sounds are loud and clear.

With this crazy weather I haven't been outdoors in almost 3 weeks, 2 weeks because of the flu. Hope you are all doing fine. Until the next time my friends, have a day of blessings.
Love the painting! It looks like that here (NC) right now, at least until it melts in a nanosecond.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo of winter. Love the poem.Have a warm cozy day, Toni.
ReplyDeleteLove the poem too. The sounds of winter here...the heater kicking on and off. Hope you are staying warm and feeling much better now. I just posted one of your Creative Adventures on my blog. I may have to go back and check out previous memes and do them this year. They are good brain stimulus, and I seem to need that these days!!! I am sorry you are not continuing them now that I've caught on...
ReplyDeleteOkay, this is one of your best ever. Just marvelous descriptive poem. I can feel it. And I love how you come up with the perfect pictures to bring things alive.
ReplyDeleteYou rock my friend!
