A Silent Rush of Cold

A wispy dream; a velveteen morning;

calming and serene; snow slowly drifting. 

Storms now brewing over the Northern sky

blustery winter's breath I now descry!

Heavy coat and hat; battling icy winds;

animals in the barn; firewood to the bin.

Warmest blanket on the bed; old cat purrs;

knitted throw by the stove; toasty for sure.

Chores are finally done; time to relax;

snowflakes falling now covering my tracks.

Teapot is ready, steam rises up high; 

biscuits from the oven; butter nearby.

Look out the window; hazy from the frost;

snow covers the pond; can't see where I crossed.

Inhaling brisk air; a late snowy blow;

peek out the door brings a silent rush of cold.
