A Winter's Night

Peacefully Cold It Is! 
It's cold.  Really cold.  The streets are dark and quiet.  A fresh dusting of snow has blessed itself on our road.  Neighboring houses have been dark and hibernating for hours now.  All is calm.  All is quiet.  Cars parked and coated with fresh snow.  Just enough to blow off and allow the wind to take it away.  

It's rather serene.  The kind of stuff you read in a novel.  Minus the holiday cheer, as that would seem more fitting for the occasion.  But alas, it's February.  Old Man Winter is making his mark.  Spring will soon be on its way.  Looking forward to some greener days and a warm Sun.  That will be a true blessing.  

But for the short term, I too will retire and snuggle deep into my bed with a cat purring in my ear.  Work always comes and work never ends.  But one thing for sure, is that this nasty weather will surely end one day soon.  And that will be a welcomed delight.  Hope you find yourselves warm and cheery in these bitter cold days of winter.  Spring will be here soon and we can all shed those nasty winter blues and breathe a new life once again.  Just don't forget to breathe deeply.  elizinashe
