Winter is Wide Awake
Winter is wide awake
Cold snowflake’s fall
On the hard, frosted ground
The sun gleams
On the frozen blue lake
People skate in their warm coats with woolly scarves and brightly coloured mittens
The bare trees just glisten
As if, jewels laden their bare branches
Emerald green and ruby red
We sit beside a burning fire before bed
Warming up
After being out in the winter cold
The blackest sky
A silver moon
The sparkling stars
Tired from this cold day
Winter is here to stay
For several months until spring makes it’s own way
