Winter

WINTER An unwelcome guest You boldly pushed autumn aside. Your fierce winds blow her fallen leaves Forcing her to say goodbye. Your bitter cold makes us cringe As we reach for coat and hat. We trudge through the ice and snow And dream of seasons past. Then one morning we awake To the earth so calm and still. The snow is sparkling like diamonds From the sun peeking over the hill. We thank God for His infinite wisdom For this time to pause and reflect To see the beauty of all His works And welcome you here at last
