Nature

The Hold of Winter 
 
There's a desire for a cosy fire 
Yet Winter holds with his icy arm 
A touch of frosty air in my face 
The snow-white covers all with charm 
 
Cold winds are roaring around the house 
Owl's hoo-hoo the only sound at night 
Closer I snuggle in your loving arms 
Whisk away the Winter's tune of blight 
 
Dreaming trees glisten in pale moon light 
Flowers of ice veil the window pane 
Romance is felt beside a gleaming fire 
And romance shows in your eyes again 
 
Would we bother 'bout being snowed in? 
With peace and solitude as time's wrap 
A chance to understand a soul's sheen 
Where hope for new Spring is waking up 
 
The Winter's robe is from the ice queen 
In sunshine sparkling as pure delight 
Look with your heart and thank the Giver 
Enjoy your Winter's most perfect side!
