Winter Winter Winter winds whirl through the air. Winter winds whirl through the air. Flakes fall fast glistening to the ground. Flakes fall fast glistening to the ground. Sleighing in the snow down the hill. Sleighing in the snow down the hill. Fingers freezing from the frost. Fingers freezing from the frost. Family and friends sitting by the fire. Family and friends sitting by the fire.

As I woke to the sound of the soaking rain As I woke to the sound of the soaking rain I slowly silently stepped outside I slowly silently stepped outside Onto the frozen foggy ground Onto the frozen foggy ground To hear the morning’s magic sound To hear the morning’s magic sound The love of life renewed again. The love of life renewed again.

Feeling frantic, fumbling for the worst, Feeling frantic, fumbling for the worst, Words tangle tenaciously, far from terse. Words tangle tenaciously, far from terse. Complete chaos coming out of my mouth, Complete chaos coming out of my mouth, Stuttering, slurring, my idea going south. Stuttering, slurring, my idea going south. Sweaty hands flutter frequently, Sweaty hands flutter frequently, Spiraling sporadically out of control, Spiraling sporadically out of control, Swiftly slipping from my optimistic thoughts, Swiftly slipping from my optimistic thoughts, Surreal embarrassment squelching my soul. Surreal embarrassment squelching my soul. I owe this to a corruptive enemy, I owe this to a corruptive enemy, Always throwing me cunning curves, Always throwing me cunning curves, Its name no other than, Its name no other than, The nuisance that calls itself nerves. The nuisance that calls itself nerves.

Wonderfully white winter snow always astounds.Wonderfully white winter snow always astounds.

Sweet SlumberSweet Slumber

Her heavy head longs for her pillows. Her heavy head longs for her pillows. As she wishes she was dreaming of wonderful willows. As she wishes she was dreaming of wonderful willows. As she gives her bed one last look, As she gives her bed one last look, She decides on five more minutes studying that boring book.She decides on five more minutes studying that boring book.Finally complete, she stumbles slowly to her glorious prize, Finally complete, she stumbles slowly to her glorious prize, Here she'll lie lazily until the morning sun rise. Here she'll lie lazily until the morning sun rise. Her exhausted eyes ease their way closed, Her exhausted eyes ease their way closed, Her sweet slumber arrives just as the new day arose.Her sweet slumber arrives just as the new day arose.

Wakeful waterfalls weave through silent springs, Wakeful waterfalls weave through silent springs, As stunning sunsets seek attentive eyes.As stunning sunsets seek attentive eyes.Restless rainbows raid cease-less storms,Restless rainbows raid cease-less storms,While celestial stars shine vivaciously above.While celestial stars shine vivaciously above.But all not as beautiful, as the one I love.But all not as beautiful, as the one I love.
