It's snowing here for the first time in many, many moons. The silence is awesome. I woke at 2 a.m. and noticed the glow coming through a window. It was the gorgeous, white, magical snow. We got about three inches. (Don't laugh, you yanks!) I can't wait for the kids in the neighborhood to wake up and see this. It'll probably be gone by tomorrow, but it's like a gift, a beautiful, rare gift from Mother Nature. I immediately thought of one of my favorite Robert Frost poems. Enjoy! xo
DUST OF SNOW
By Robert Frost
The way a crow
Shook down on me
The dust of snow
From a hemlock tree
Has given my heart
A change of mood
And saved some part
Of a day I had rued.
6:00 a.m. in the swamps of Louisiana....snow!
Only one of my cats would touch the snow...Gir, or course. He's under my truck.
Natasha Blythe in the snow.
Let it snow...
