Year's First Snow

It came from the East, with wild howls and thunder

a snow like a blizzard along the Blue Ridge Mountain row

A squall with malice as trees fell asunder

unable to bear the weight of high winds and snow.










(Yesterday, January 2, it was 70 degrees.)

  1. My sister was talking about the wild weather, too.

  2. Beautiful but what a difference from the 70 degrees of yesterday! That had to be a shock for one's body to go from that warmth to the cold and the wind, etc. You described the storm really poetically too :) Of course seeing the snow pictures gave me a shiver and reminded me of our 8 years in Billings Montana. Beautiful to look at but was always cold from October through June :)

    Stay safe!
