December

The first of December the weather was dreary the clouds hung lifeless a muted grey filled the sky snowflakes dropped slowly in a straight free fall stillness in the breeze coldness gripped the air pinched the nostrils numbed the cheeks winter had truly arrived thoughts of summer lay heavily on the mind.

A lovely description of winter in December where you live, whereas this month is our first a month of Summer. I would love to experience a white Christmas, but we sit around a swimming pool trying to cool down! A blessed Christmas to you and your family my friend. Hugs Jennifer.
