Picture by Ms Teri Goode - View from our back porch
Winter's Embrace
Surely a sign of heaven's grace,
When we awoke to winter's embrace
No such beauty could be a mistake,
When not a branch the snow did brake
Mountains and valleys mantled in white,
All framed in a misty blue-gray light
A natural wonder gladly received,
For the eye and mind so visually perceived

Picture by the Buzzard - View from our back porch
Outside My Back Door
Outside my back door,
Old man winter fast approaches.
Unleashed by feral winds,
The mournful wail of what has been,
Winter's just outside my back door.
Trees long past weeping,
Find no easy task of sleeping,
Winter's just outside my back door.
Bemoan the dark gray sky,
Torrents of leaves imply,
Winter's just outside my back door.
I see all is revealed,
Nothing left concealed,
As winter approaches my back door.
