Notes About The Poem
Just for fun..Enjoyed writing this one..

I Wish You Could

"Whose woods these are I think I know"
I'll walk awhile in the light snow

Maybe I'll see a Christmas tree
Wild Holly berries_just sightsee

These wood end at beautiful quay
Ocean's song lures to be carefree

The quay is long solidly built_ stores
And shopes with goods along these shores

I'll walk this way though circle back
Through the woods by the hermit's shack

A nice long trek through winter's woods
I'm glad I went I wish you could....

First line a direct quote from Robert Frost"s 
poem "Stopping By The Woods On A Snowy Evening"

#2..A Winter's Walk

Smile, I Believe I shall for the most, bypass the woods and stroll through Paradises heavenly and Eternal places; Holy Angels by my side! Very lovely verse my dear * Love always, John! *
