Winter

When the first flakes of snow slowly descend
To lay a white carpet upon the land
The deer, the wolves, the bears and all their friends
Depend on Mother Nature's gentle hand
The trees wearing a coat of fresh light snow
All immune to the biting wind and cold
Stand straight and tall like soldiers in a row
A wondrous sight to see and to behold
Upon this softly laid and tender bed
Countless snow angels lay their sleepy heads

Hi MistyLace,
Ha.ha. Thank you for the poem. I guess the difference is that you can see and feel the snow whereas I can only imagine it.

Hi MsEducator,
Thank you. Isn't imagination wonderful? Things can be the way you want it to be.
Oh, I have been unreliably told that one can become immune to the biting wind and cold if one wears a coat of fresh light snow.

Hi potpourri,
Thank you. Being in Malaysia, I too will miss the snow in northern Wisconsin. Below zero temperature? Brrr! but like you, I love the scenery too.

Hi mrsjoe,
Thank you. That's the way I view winter but I am glad that I am viewing it from here, away from the howling blizzards and cold.
