Dear Winter!

Dear Winter,
We welcomed you with open arms,
and laughing hearts,
as the flakes began to fall,
You gave us more snow this year,
than in many years since 1974.
I ask you Dear Winter,
is it not time to go?
Is it now not Springs turn,
to melt the snow,
and underneath the grass shall turn to green,
flowers will bloom,
birds will return,
and in time we will once again long for you!

  7. Yes, I would like to second this request! We are getting yet more snow starting tomorrow evening through Saturday. My plants/flowers in the ground are so confussed I'm not sure they will ever want to peak out of the dirt this year! I wouldn't... 'smiles'

    Praying for Spring to WIN!!

  12. I don't know about the longing part, but when it is winter I don't get down I just get tired. This morning we had fresh snow again, white covering everything again, but only about six inches. It is still snowing and supposed to snow a few more days. Keep your spirits up, we will see spring soon.
