...this very midnight hour...Swept By The Winds


awakened by the winds and the chimes that sing
chilled by the cold this night does bring
snow in mounds yet pure, untouched and white
swept by the winds in swirling flight
winter's call known and heed I it well
each snow crystal to sparkle and beauty to dwell.

HI ROSEMARIE-

the force of winter roared in crystal streams of white - often blinding as it rose against the night sky and formed peaks and valleys of white only to have them redefined by the wind gusts that carried them afar. I so loved how I bowed to the power of nature with all due respect for its intent - allowing me to take part - safe within our homes warmth.
Love to you this Winter storm and always
Gail
peace and hope.....

Dearest Gail, "...safe within our homes warmth..." where heart, trust, and love abound. This season's call to gather with Joy.

Much much love to you and yours,
Rose Marie
