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.

    Beautiful pictures ... I love the first hours of a fresh snowfall with everything dressed in lace and crystals.

    Beautiful pictures! It looks lovely where you live, mind you anything that ends in "shire" always sounds as if it must be simply charming!
    I just discovered your blog today and love it - your creations are so very pretty.

    O Yes, I agree - you know from that silence when you wake that it has snowed! Keep cosy too.
