Winter Poem

Oh winter, how I dread the days upon your arrival,
I immediately rely on my hats and mittens for survival.
As the wind howls during the long cold night,
I rush to my bed with my blanket snuggling tight.
Even though your freezing temperatures cause a stir,
There are some pleasant things that I can endure.
The snow falling from sky above,
Reminds me of a great, peaceful white dove.
Snowmen take over the front yards of homes,
Replacing the once very well gnomes.
Icicles are a form of natural art,
And then they disappear as fast as a dart.
The smell of hot cocoa fills the air,
While children are in the giving spirit and share.
As the eggnog makes its way around the room,
The old grandparents begin their stories about their platoon.
Holiday songs put everyone is the mood to sing,
And some may even give their significant others a grand ring.
Grand Christmas lights makes the city all that more bright,
While spectators stare at a tall’s trees height.
Christmas gifts are stacked up and block one’s sight,
as the stars are shining and oh so very bright.
The winter season is full of happiness, laughter, and families being brought together,
There is no greater gift then spending  the holidays with loved ones.
