You haven’t seen
nor do you know
the treachery
I can, I will
bestow.
For what reason
frankly
I don’t know.
Bitter
black heart
this
is what I know.

Don’t be bitter or angry
Just be happy and gay.
Don’t let them get you down
With their toxic chatter
Even in the darkest night
There always will be a guiding light.
Dance a light step down the pathway
Smile, laugh hysterically with delight
Being happy and gay
If only tonight.

Snow is falling softly
gently down upon a cold
Hard bitter ground
Unforgiving in this season angry
As we struggle to be warm.
Quietly snow covers all
That harsh, hard cold
Making soft and warm it seems
This landscape filled with cold.
Blanket all the world
In white beauty bold
There til spring
The ground does sleep
While we wait for warmth
To unfold.
Springing forth in vibrant colour
Joyous singing can be heard
May we rest in quiet winter
Tucked beneath a blanket white
Waiting for spring to tell us
This is the time to spring to life.
