Winter

There's a sudden chill in the air
Now that Wintertime is here.
The louring clouds are threatening snow
As the blue skies disappear.

Yet there's beauty on the land,
As we awake on a winters morn
When Jack Frost has paid a visit,
And a beautiful picture he's drawn.

He arrived in the stillness of night
Scattering silver dust all around.
Icicles and orbs dangle from trees,
Crystal jewels lie on the ground.

The birds are silent, nothing stirs
Just a red robin greeting the day.
It's a wonderful crisp white world
Now that Winter has come to stay.

Nightfall

I sit and watch from my window,
As the stars come out at night,
Sparkling against a black velvet sky
Filling the world with light.

I sit and watch, and I wonder,
How can this miracle be?
The light from the sun has gone
Then this magic performance we see.

Somewhere high in the Heavens,
God's hand is changing the view.
I bow to His mighty power
The wondrous things He can do.

I sit and watch from my window,
God's beautiful work I survey;
My soul is touched by His presence
When night welcomes the end of the day.
