White frost covering all around On an ice cold day, I see my breath, Cars covered white in a sheet The ground feels slippery under my feet, Life seems suspended as few venture out Cobwebs are easy to view on trees in full sight, Puddles frozen and have a reflective sheen, There’s something comforting about
