WINTER
SNOW
I sit gazing out my window on a cold December day
The vibrant autumn colors now replaced by shades of gray
The rain is beginning and it's starting now to freeze
Ice is covering everything, the deck, the yard, the trees
This world looks so beautiful as if encased in glass
Everything's turned crystal, each limb, each blade of grass
The snow begins falling and coats the world in white
Trees cradle clouds of snow, what a lovely sight
Boughs are now so heavy, they're bending to the ground
The world now is silent as the snow comes drifting down
God's turned the gray of winter into a land that's so pristine
A cardinal lights upon a branch and completes His lovely scene
