This early morning I got out of bed, Found it was zero degrees centigrade, And the air outside was crispy and cold, A candid crispness had taken hold, Feeding a feeling of freshness at play, Surrounding this wonderful winter’s day; Outside I saw rooftops covered with snow, Also the shrubs in the gardens below, Icing was on green leaves and trim tree tops, And parking spaces where the squirrel hops, A scene to keep in memory always, When I do deviate to depressing days.
