Winter Storm

Winter Storm Inside our warm and comfy bed tonight, we'll see white sparkling flakes fly past the moon and mounds pile up 'neath gold and silver light where satin banks of snow and sky commune. Protected, safe from snow storm's frigid flow, as chill forms icicles, both large and small, we'll drift to sleep lulled softly by moon glow and swaying tree limb shadows on the wall. And sleep we will as snow drifts fill the scene... For come the morn, our spades must plow them clean. Sandra M. Haight
