18 february
before the snow came
i walked the wood
squatted down in snowy pathways
to discover tiny beauties painted by nature
flakes began to fall so softly
that i hardly noticed them stealing in at all
in the night the storm winds battered against my bedroom window
blowing wet snow and salty spray
covering the purple berries that line the forest pathways
ah! a nice walk in the woods with snow covering the lane.
