Synonymous with cold,
So welcome at New Years,
Silently the flakes fall
Serenely and softly.
Soon, the chillness will bring
Sudden and sharp changes:
Strong storms and stinging sleet.

In my part of Canada (Newfoundland), we had a little snow before Christmas and we are having a very light snowfall today. The storms will come in January and I am not looking forward to it!!! Thank you for your kind words. I appreciate it. Happy New Year!
