The Wonderful World Of Winter
Garnett Ann Schultz
The wonderful world of winter
Brought a magic to lighten my heart,
In the beautiful white of the dawning
With the joys only winter imparts.
Every tree decked out in full glory
In a heavenly mantle of white,
Like a precious and wonderful story
Filled my mind with a glowing delight.
As far as I looked in the distance
There was naught but a world shining fair,
And I knew that the bright cold of winter
Would keep the day sparkling and fair.
Not a footprint to mar all the beauty
The pathway had long drifted in
With a mountain of snow ever growing
Where a roadway had recently been.
The wonderful world of winter
Held the laughter of children at play,
Their little eyes bright with excitement
On this heavenly beautiful day.
The hills came alive with their chatter,
The snow seemed to add to their charms,
While winter in all of its splendor
Held the world snug and safe in its arms.
Oh, give me the bright world of winter
To keep in my heart evermore,
With the snowflakes that sparkle and glisten
To bring winter's dreams to my door.
My heart holds this thrill beyond measure,
My mind knows a joy real and sweet,
While the wonderful bright world of winter
Makes my hopes and my dreams more complete.
