Great white flakes kept falling,
but our lights stayed on
and the roads remained clear.
It must be winter come calling
with her snowy advisory
for a merry time of year.

There are two white horses down the road from my house.
They rarely come close enough for conversation but today was different.
They whispered with low nickers.
And I whispered back.
Have you ever heard a horse whisper?
I did.
And it was magic!

After foreboding clouds and thunder the air turned cool and dry and the sun lit up our mountain valley. I sat outside watching happy hummingbirds, butterflies, and the mother deer and her young ones.
We were all celebrating nature’s wondrous apology.
“Sorry ,” she said, “for the unrelenting heat wave and all the storms, humidity and heavy rains!
But here is a taste of autumn joy to come!”

How quickly we forget the way the world transforms after a fresh snow. This is a photo from my archives. How strange and pure a Virginia wintry scene is from an air-conditioned room at the beginning of a long hot summer.
