Another beautiful poem john you have a vey good way with words a pleasure to read.

With snow cap mountains
Add fir tres and the sky too

Cold winds bring forth change
Time to find your woollen hats
Maybe a scarf too!

By Micheal Harris There is a walk that I know, where a gentle stream flows, finds its path by what waters created, I hear it bubble along, I hear flocks of bird song, voices… chirping, carried in the breeze.
