Cast Away Into the Snow

As I drive down this lonely road
Wondering when it will end
I see my heart among the snow
Cold and alone laying with tire tracks

A beautiful sight to the eyes
But to this heart it waits to melt
The sun has not risen in many years
Just waiting for the snow plow

To cast me aside

(This picture is very close to where I live, just taken two days ago it's colder then crap up here, lol)

This pic reminds me of Christmas Cards that once upon a time we all used to send out - now an email is for more personal or a message from friends on soup. Lovely write Bobby. Hugs and blessings, Jenn.

Bobby, This cold lonely road you know so well left tire tracks on my mind. Keep it steered between the ditches. -Richard
