Scenic lake
crusted over with ice,
an arctic cold comes in the
night,
all seeking shelter even the
mice,
snow begins in the morning
light.
Elements of nature ever so bold,
as freezing wind cuts to the
bone,
chill factor makes it just too
cold,
everything frozen just like a
stone.
Ground all white covered in
snow,
winter wonderland beyond
compare,
as the cold wind continues to
blow,
sitting by the fire we all now
share.
The only good is that it won’t
last,
it comes with fury and then it’s
gone,
snow turns to rain as it starts
to pass,
sitting by the fire we just sing
a song.
So cold and grey for there is no
sun,
a mystical land that now stands
still,
as we wait patiently until it’s
done,
for Mother Nature has her own
will.
