After reading it again, I really love the way winter rolls down the mountain and puffs like a giant spirit spreading itself everywhere. It is a vivid presence, but uplifting and refreshing also-especially through the fact that it "puffs" refreshing air.

Certainly, the poem captures the moment. I was there, it was me. And what a fun surprise at the closing! I laughed out loud and then read it again! A talented, talented lady.

This was such a delightful poem! I love this for I do it too:
Daily my eyes search the hills
They roam across the mountain tops
Our foothills are so beautiful! It is how I like it, most of the snow in the mountains and very little in the valley! I like to see it from inside my cozy home! BRAVO!!!!!! sam
