A WALK THROUGH WINTER

We set out early for our walk into the 
Cold, frosty day,

What a beautiful scene, seeing the morning 
Light shines through.

Large pine trees are all around, 
Standing high in the sky for quite a while,

Snow has settled on the ground, like a thick,
White blanket from a passing storm.

Having a little fun throwing snowballs at 
Each other, hiking through the woods,

Pinecones we find along the way of many shapes 
And sizes make a beautiful scene.

Icicles are seen hanging from rock formations as 
We head further along into the woods,

A rushing river of water is a sight, so cold it 
Must be, as it travels beyond where we are,

A walk through Winter, chilly winds blow after

Dark, into the night, again it’s Daylight.
