Winter Realities



How odd, one might ask of another, does the area weather cometh?
In the long hot months of the summer comes oppressive heat an humidity.
In winter time, Virginia can easily become an Ice Box filled with dry and ice.
And when the snow falls, for some, the summer is a far away love.
 

Bitter cold and snow makes for a strong bonded couple.

They team-up on the young, the old and the sickly…

Not being very nice to them as they attack their weaknesses.

And in January, April looks as far away as the stars in the sky.
 

But there is also beauty and fun in the bitter cold and snow.

Ask the children who are at play, braving winter’s brutality.

They remind the older folks of what it is to be alive and wanting.

Frown to a smile… why not see the beauty -- in winter’s paint brush strokes.
