Snowfall Speculations

Snowfall Speculations

			It's the fiercest of the seasons
			as it sheds a coat of white.
			Winter's come with all the trappings
			in the still and dark of night.
			We huddle under covers
			from this first onslaught of cold;
			yet we rise to face morning
			as the bitter winds unfold.
			So if we see the bleakness
			while we gaze upon the land,
			we should also see the beauty 
			that makes this season grand!
