WINTER
Winter is a contented homebody, who.
Snuggles under thick quilts
Awakes to sun - sparkled opalescent drifts
Crunches snow underfoot as she
gathers the morning paper.
Reads Jane Eyre by a blazing fire
Opens greetings of blessings and cheer
Responds with notes of warmth and joy.
Sips hot chocolate with marshmallow topping
Trims the tree with Memory’s ornaments
Wraps gifts to surprise family and friends.
Winter - - the season of Giving
the season of Contentment.

Snug and warm - a pleasing evocation of the most welcome aspects of the "bleak mid-winter" and the Festive Season.
