Snowy Nights
A creaking chair
Swaying back and forth
An old lady sits
Window pane only knows north
Her body is molded
Her legs just sway
She sits in her chair
Her thoughts are miles away
Snowflakes glisten
Reflecting off the glass
She dreams of snow angels
But those days have passed
A fireplace puts a glow
Upon her tired face
Heats her cold heart
For love has lost it's place
Winter is her favorite season
Here she sits alone
Snowy nights surround her
She rocks herself to stone
