Winters Dance

Gently falling silence
White envelopes everything
Cool breeze upon my face
A piercing subtle sting

Beautiful shapes falling
Not visible to the naked eye
Symbolizing Mother Nature
Must we say goodbye?

The dance embarks traditions 
Sledding, ice skating and tobogganing
Increasing is its magical rhythm 
Watching our children dance and sing

In the blink of an eye it dissipates
As the warmth of sun comes out to play
White landscape has now departed 
Awaiting idle for another day
