Winter Snow

Winter Snow

 

Oh winter snow so soft and white,

Your quite a question, quite a sight;

You wave and tumble gently down

And spread your blanket o’er the ground.

 

Your flakes come tumbling large or small,

Creating drifts both low and tall,

Impeding paths and slowing pace,

But lovingly with growing pace.

 

You paint our land in glist’ning hue,

A nature’s art of scenic view,

And then you breathe a frigid chill

Above your sparkling snow so still.

 

But Heaven knows without your snow,

It wouldn’t be the land we know.

So God has sent you tumbling down

To spread your beauty o’er the ground.
