Text

Laden with snow,
The trees hang low,
Under golden streetlamp glow,
Keeping warm
Under my coat
Homeward, I go

Creation waits,
As heaven’s gates
Rend wide the starry skies,
A silent air,
A quiet hush
All around us lies,

On winter’s morn,
A gentle fawn
Explores the day’s delight,
A silver frost,
A glistening dream,
Earthly wonders in sight.

All blanketed white,
Soft speaks the night.
