Winter's Blanket

The snow is falling, the harsh wind blowing The fire is burning, peacefulness growing. Peering out at the swirling flakes of snow Winters blanket is falling tonight we know Nose pressed against the cold clean glass The drifts building and covering the grass. Windows mist as warmth meets cold Snuggling in, waiting for you to hold The blanket of snow rises flake by flake A world quilted in snow for when we awake. Warm and comfortable as the north wind blew The only blanket I need to cover me- is you. Wrapped in your arms, held safe and tight Keeping me warm throughout the night. Praying the world’s snow blanket grows deep So you can stay warm in my arms in sleep. © 14/11/2012 ~GG~ Competition Entry: Winter's Blanket
