For the cold, cold mornings For the blustering, icy winds For how they freeze my nose and ears. For I love to walk on ice For the ground, it loves to mock me. For the cars that creep along For they are silent as can be. For the birds that are not present For how I miss their sweetened songs. For the icy crystals that must leave For the sun’s rays do arrive For the warmth gracing our world For it enlightens me through To my soul.
