Blanket of Snow

Blanket of snow....


Outside the air is crisp and clean
The tress are pristine white
and a blanket of snow covered the lawn.
In the distance the sounds of machines
They're plowing the roads before night.

Inside we sit snuggled together 
Sipping hot cocoa with marshmallows
While enjoying the warmth of the fire
Knowing this is just the beginning of winter
We still have a long time to go.

There will be days of fun ahead
of catching snowflakes on the tongue
and seeing the frost form on the glass
of sliding down hill with the sleds.
snowmen to make, and carols to be sung.

I know what you mean I was born in Canada but live in Tn, in the US now. the cold winters can force me to stay inside and look through the windows to see it's beauty. Because of some issues I live with.

Thanks. Lately I've enjoyed writing my poetry more. Since I've entered some fun contests on another site. As it brought new ideas and creativity for me
