Winter came down
to our home one night
Quietly pirouetting in on
silvery-toed slippers of snow,
And we, we were
children once again.

Piles of snow adorn the yard and winter winds blow through the trees. It was a 'snow day' today; schools were canceled. Ice on roads and walkways keep everyone alert, especially when evidence of vehicles in the berm along the highway reminds us of it's slickness! Young adult visitors were our guests today, and they spent much time skating on the sidewalk in their athletic shoes! They were children once again. Joyful, carefree, and energetic. It made me happy to simply observe them.
We had a couple of snow days over the last few days. I love it - when I can stay inside at home. Going outside is a different story! ~Adrienne~
ReplyDeleteLooks beautiful. What a great time to warm and relax.
ReplyDeleteThe church parking lot was supper slippery last night. The kids called it the "glass slipper." It took me a moment to figure out that they were right, and then I had a good laugh.
ReplyDeleteHi LaTeaDah - I love the snow. And we're getting more as I write!
ReplyDeleteHappy Snow Day!

The snow looks so pretty! It's always nice to have a "snow day" and spend it doing such fun things.

ReplyDeleteenjoy your day.
I think, right about now, I would love to have a snow day. I don't like cold, but at least the snow would make it sort of worthwhile. We just have cold and wet weather right now.
