It’s official! At 11:19 PM EST, winter arrived…brrrrr
Enticing everyone, with a flurry
Awakening the slumber of snowmen
Children, frolicking, on dunes of white
Snowball fights and mugs of hot chocolate
While we sit by the warmth of the fireplace
Longing for the first day of spring
Author’s Note: When this poem was written, winter arrived in the morning. This year, it arrives in the evening. But I still think the last lines are true! 🙂
