Chill And Icy Fingers

It was as though Mother Nature Looked down on us and frowned As long chill and icy fingers Quickly gripped our little town I awakened in the darkness To a strange and eerie sound As a billion icy crystals Came drifting to the ground For you see, throughout the night A storm came quietly through It seemed a little frightening And it just might frighten you Poor animals did not understand Why their world had turned so cold But it was truly fascinating To watch this storm unfold But nothing lasts forever For this too will soon be gone And I know this as I bundle up The holidays won’t be too long I will enjoy its sparkling beauty And snap some amazing pictures Wander around the new landscape That is now a winter fixture!
