This time of year provides so many good opportunities for fun in the snow, observations of certain happenings in the natural world, and inside time for reflection and writing. I hope that you're enjoying it, too!

Grateful

The swish of my skis

as I slide by the trees

is a sound I can hear

in my sleep.

…and…

The chill of the air

on a face that is bare

is a thrill I can feel

way down deep.

…and…

The day in my head

as I lie in my bed is

a day that I always

can keep.
