It almost feels like Christmas in the heart,
A child again, with joy I watch them fall,
Melting on still green grass, frosting on the tall
Pines swaying welcome to the Winter's start.
First flakes of snow, first harbinger of white
That will one day remain for endless days
I may soon tire of this, soon cease to praise,
Yet now it's newness shines my heart up bright.
For winter brings its special gifts to me,
There's time to watch the world grow white and still.
Go walking briskly in the winter's chill,
Or take a golden opportunity
To put Fall's treasures in my memory chest,
But best of all, to take my time and rest.
