Diamond Coat

One late fall morning I took my walk, and in the early morning sunlight. I saw that winter had visited, sometime in the middle of the night. A soft blanket of white did conceal, the dreariness of an autumn gone. It had replaced it with a jeweled coat, of a million diamonds upon my lawn. I stood there staring across the field, enjoying what nature had to give. I thanked God for all of the riches, that comes from this Ozark way to live.
