When the earth sleeps for a time.
The beauty of the first snow flakes
That turns the earth so white.
Just a little chill in the air
That reminds us of warmer days.
The magic that only a winters day can bring
For you and me.
Each season has its special moments, but only winter has so much to offer each of us.
We look forward to skiing, ice skating, snow ball flights, sliding down a hill on our rumps or a piece of cardboard, sled-riding or just frolicking in the snow. A wonderland of white that adorns pine trees with its splendid beauty and where a child's snowman guards the winter nights against the heat of the sun.
As winter progresses we look forward to Christmas, decorated trees, holly, mistletoe, Christmas diner with family and that special love one.
The magic turns our breath to a misty white while on cool days and nights makes the snow crunch beneath our feet. While on a cold winters night children and lovers sing Christmas carols while horses pull their sleight ringing their sleigh-bells keeping time with the music.
Let's not forget New Year's Day when one year passes into the history books and a new one begins. We can't help looking forward to spring and its promise of new life and the banishing of the snow caped world.
With winters passing we also look forward to new opportunities for a better tomorrow and a promise of better days.
No other time of year is so challenging and yet so magical...as winter.
