It Came ...

The white stuff.


Not enough to make a snowman …
… or even a snow cat.
Perhaps a snowball …
… when the neighbour is least expecting it.


But enough to lift my spirits.

I have fed the birdies.



And make me smile.


To make my finger ends numb and tingly.
And make everything pretty.


More promised.
I am waiting.
Patiently.
Well, perhaps not …
… more in excited anticipation.
Will sit playing with paper and glue …
… and watch for the next flakes to fall ...

***

Hope your view is pretty today too.
