Winter blues

The winter arrived with frost covered winds, icy streets and darkness

And for giggles, it brought along with it a lovely dose of the oft heralded winter blues

Blues just deep enough to drive one to sink beneath the covers, drink hot cocoa and indulge ones flaky tendencies

Blues light enough to be driven back with a few swallowed tablets to mimic the sunshine and joy found in the light

Though the December remains dark, it ends with the promise of glad tidings and sheets of snow

Laughter, hope, peace and the delicious certainty of a year neatly wrapped with many blessings

Thus I find myself bursting with gratitude in this year’s cold, icy, dark days!

Merry Christmas to you and yours.
