Gentle Winter's Eve
fondly as I feel the cold breeze in my soul
blue touches the crystal night air with flow
of snow lingers down on the pine trees, I see
as I drift endlessly tonight, thru this gentle winter's eve
I pass near a pond on which a bird use to land
where I use sit and feed out of my hand
bread from the market, baked fresh everyday
during the spring and summer times way
but, the she bird has rose to the air
taken flight, to my dispair
for, the pond is ice and covered with snow
I look back and sigh, knowing the she bird had to go
I walk on farther, to the bridge,
where a car, awaits for me to get in
I take a glance, of the mountain
just one more time, before I go
For, this will be the last walk
in this mountain's, winter's snow
