You were still asleep         when from music I awakened                 to a sudden gale And to my delight       chimes played wildly in the night                  wind is slicing wooden rail Got me out of bed        frozen in my sleepy head                    clinging to the words Could I keep this song?       write the lyrics all night long?                   theme for lonesome birds stood to stretch and see     caught a glimpse,  eternity                  moon was center stage sparkling diamonds perched          far out in the universe                 glitter snow on page beyond ice laden trees     snow had nature on it's knees           mean subzero chill Funny just today       sun broke icicles away              outside window sill         Winter snow then ice       weather man's advice, not a                  time to drive alone Not to drive at all!          would be a better call to                hunker down at home Opened up the door              chilled my carcass to the core                    music of the snow. Back inside again          in the warmth of down and friend                 I decided to forgo Winter lullaby         soothes and lures a tired eye                            back to dreamy home Hearing starts to fade        while wind chimes serenade                            long and winded poem
