Snow Days

Busy hands working outside, building a snow fort,


trekking up and down the yard delivering shredded ice

to be shaped into bricks with an old metal pan.


Busy hands working inside, hanging a new set of pretty curtains up high,


and trying to capture that beautiful, ever-elusive winter's light, bouncing off the wonderful snow outside.

And the dog, you may ask?


Busy taking it all in, ascertaining that indeed, this is a good life.
