Unexpected joy of snow this morning after I started writing this poem. A Winter incomplete without snowfall - our first in Georgia U.S this year!

Dawn’s xanthous blooming through the forest trees. Bouquet from God’s hand suddenly immersed in light. Flaming pine without a flicker, matchless crimson seize. Skinny oaks like a garden gate, applauds pleasing sight. O blaze of origin - Sun’s ancient grin. That was art and then the brush of current events - First snow! Ah, my trees with crystal light not senseless rain. Pavement filled in, tires leave their treads with my consent. I throw on coat and boots! Twirl around outdoors, this child insane! Flurries fallen footprints - God’s gift of lighthearted chintz. 2/8/2020

Give us a little snow, we’ll sled, build snowmen, catch flakes on our tongues, and we throw the kids outside. :)
