When Snow Falls Thick

When snow falls thick and clogs the Spring whose thawing work has set you free, when blizzard winds whirl in your ears, demand your dismal company – remember Winter is a lie, a setback only, set in snow; He cannot rob you of your joy, nor murder Spring with killing blow.

When snow falls thick and clogs the Spring

whose thawing work has set you free,

when blizzard winds whirl in your ears,

demand your dismal company –

remember Winter is a lie,

a setback only, set in snow;

He cannot rob you of your joy,

nor murder Spring with killing blow.

    I love this one! Especially:

    remember Winter is a lie,

    a setback only, set in snow;

    He cannot rob you of your joy,

    nor murder Spring with killing blow.

    WOW!

      It does seem rather much – and then I remember Boston or Texas and remember that my family are all safe and well – and have more patience to wait it out!

        So true. At least we are alive & well. Cold – but – well.
