Joy Has a Reason

The branches creak and squirrels scurry Hopping over snow patches in a hurry One looked in the window, with curiosity As the wind brushed its back with velocity Blue skies play tricks it is warm But the air is cold, nature likes to perform Bare trees hold their strength through autumn after loss For winter will soon come and show who is boss Still the wind chimes play, every season For joy has its way for a reason Heidi Sands 11/26/22
