Wonderland

I sit indoors with fire a glow
and look outside at cold, fresh snow,
I think of days of Summers Past
of colours bright and shadows cast
from cats who snooze quite unaware,
of swallows swooping through the air
and though its dark and coldness lingers
it won’t be long before our fingers
sow the seeds that we will nuture
bringing forth a brighter future.
So take this time to sit and stare
and plan and list with time to spare,
so when we wake to Natures thaw
we’ll live in Wonderland once more.
