First Snow of the Season

The snow came swirling down last night And blanketed the trees in white. The whipping wind blew wild and free, Obscuring visibility. We didn’t have too far to drive And made it, glad to be alive. The house was cozy, snug and warm, The perfect place to watch the storm. The morning beckoned and the sight Of sparkling trees brought such delight, Their charm enhanced, to some degree, By Nature’s wrath, I guarantee.

Yes, first snow brings me back to my childhood, after that reality sets in and I hate the stuff. We only had a dusting, no bring job for my car's windshield wipers. Thanks for reading about my geese, based on a real experience of some years ago. / M

Just keep it up there with you Mrs Ilene. That is why I live in the south:)
