Heidi Sands Poet Rhyme

Arctic Blasts

Cold air, strong wind, high snowbanks, with sun still shining through
A brisk, clear, walk will wake you up from all that you do
Branches squeaking all around from the wind that blows
Winter’s endurance is stronger than anyone knows
Frozen snowballs are scattered across the pavement on the street
Slippery ice patches are everywhere to look out for, under your feet
This is what you see in the mountains from many arctic blasts
While the long winter shows its mighty force, for as long as it lasts

Tom Cunningham February 26, 2019 at 2:33 PM There is a certain beauty in winter, we have missed out this year, we had one sprinkle that was gone by dinnertime, Now it seems summer has arrived , temps today were 20c hotter than Spain, our weather is certainly playing up. Enjoyed your verse Heidi. Tom. Heidi Sands February 26, 2019 at 2:51 PM Wow, like summer there already! Thank you for your comment and input Tom. I appreciate your support :)
