A Winter Scene

by Rebecca Lynn / Taurus - Not entered

The morning sun slowly rises
above the great white mountain peaks.
The cold wind blows unmercivully 
through the vast deserted valleys.
The tres creek and moan 
under the immense pressure of the wind.

As quick as the snow began
it now ceases with the same exuberance.
The wind is now hushed
and the falling snow no more.
The peaceful scene lay unfold
in front of Heaven's graceful door.

How much longer will this tranquility
go undisturbed?
How much longer 'till nature
once again unfolds?

Soon in the distance a chick-a-dee is heard
and then a roaring bob cat.
Nature is slowly unfolding
her graceful wings of life.

As the day passes
and the sun moves higher into the deep blue sky.
The snow begins to melt
the brooks begin to bubble.
