Red breasted Robin on
snow covered fence,
ducks landing and skidding
on the now frozen lake,
icicles hanging from the
branches of trees,
the beauty of winter
never failing to please.

Kids making a snowman
hands painfully cold,
white breath their laughter
as snowballs they roll,
sledging down hillsides
in snow up to their knees,
the beauty of winter,
never failing to please.

Car on the driveway
refusing to go
the windscreen is covered with
three inches of snow,
an hour late already
I´m now starting to sneeze,
the beauty of winter
never failing to please.

Tucked up in bed
nose bright red and sore
used three boxes of tissues
and still I need more,
temperature rising
coughing and sneezing,
the beauty of winter
so ****** pleasing!
