Congratulations on your win Constance. So often we see winter as raging, cold cruelty but you have shown winter with a compassionate heart overseeing life through the shortest and darkest time of the year. So nicely done! Blessings!

Very nice. The softness of your consonants evokes the snow differently from Frost who does the crisp crackle. Elizabeth

Elizabeth, thank you so much for the compliment. I have always had a connection to snow because I was born in a snowstorm, perhaps, blessings, Constance
