“Snowflakes are winter’s butterflies.” – Unknown Winter is not always bitter, lifeless and drab Snow gleams as it blankets and caresses nature Birds become a vibrant display in reds and blues A Blue Jay squawks as a cardinal stands ground Perched on shimmery branches and bird feeders As their songs warm frigid air with joyous melodies Trees sleep as their barren branches provide shelter While ice shimmers in artsy patterns under sunlight Squirrels busy at feeders, hoarding seeds and nuts Winds blow snowfall as it cleanses the drab ground Ducks heard quacking while perching on icy riverbeds Nature becomes a magical display in winter
