From the Heavens snow falls gently
on this cold December day
And the snowflakes form a blanket
as on the frozen ground they lay
The crispness that is in the air
you can almost smell
And it chills the tiny sparrows
in the treetops where they dwell
I wrap my sweater tight around me
pick up a fallen glove
And I wish for a ray of sunlight
To peek through the clouds above
A shiver runs right through me
my heart is longing to be warmed
As winter dazzles me with brilliance
and the earth becomes transformed…
