First Snow
The new snow of the season is always special Photo by Boris Pavlikovsky on Pexels Pin-drop silence on a wintry night Enough a sign of snowfall in silence By the morning the snowflakes cover the earth The first snow of the season brings joy and mirth Painting the trees and roofs with nature's white brush Everything looks new, lovely, and fresh Shimmering icicles are an added joy For children, they are nature's toy And the sun comes out with a happy face Showering us with warm rays From my window, I see snow and sun in one frame Covering the earth in their drapes Everyone is bundled up and cheerful, the mood is sweet Sipping my steaming coffee, I enjoy the scene To walk on fresh powder, people come out in droves Some are eager to hit and schuss the slopes Shoveling snow is fun and a chore Snowman and snowfall fights in store A new hope, a happy tiding, and my heart glows White and gold this painting rolls
