Sunrise through a snowy fence - December 20, 2012
The magic of winter is coming
No matter how tight we hold onto fall
With each passing day
Autumn drifts further away
And in its place is winter's embrace
Lighting the path
to snowmen and sleighs
And sweet candy canes
Bags full of toys
And songs full of joy
To brighten both hearth and home.
The anonymous poem was posted on Facebook a few days ago. The illustrations are mine. For so little snow overnight, the wind certainly made for big drifts. Miraculously, some even stayed on the fields, despite blustery winds. We are thankful for any moisture we get!
Pretty snow pictures. We are only getting lots of rain here :(
ReplyDeleteThanks! We probably got between 1-2 inches. It's always amazing to me how much the snow can pile up along the ditches with the wind howling - even when there's not all that much to work with. I'm glad to get it early and not on Christmas, since I have family traveling! Merry Christmas to you and yours!
