freshly fallen snow

nature's own winter blanket

time for earth to rest

Florida we go

Vest season is the reason

Winter is coming

Icy chill in air

Bright white snow clings to each branch

Glimmers in sunight

First frost, white tinged world

Wood burning stoves scent the air

Pink tinged nose and cheeks

Soft, elegant snow

The cold air, biting my skin

Animals, not seen

Shovels moving fast

Cold breeze blowing very fast

Animals asleep

Roses still blooming

this hothouse town a blessing

snow a mystery

Roaring azure skies

and a dead television

save January.

Rain blesses my skin -

But no more, just icicles

As winter arrives.

Frigid temperatures

Everything gilded in ice

Snow falls from above
