Snow on Trees


Is there anything prettier than snow on trees?

Pine trees covered in snow.
Though the cold winds blow,
And branches swing to and fro,
The clinging snow will not go.


Many pine trees covered in snow.
Growing in a row,
bending to and fro,
but they have no where to go.


A quaint little house.
Sheltered from the snow,
by huge pine trees that continue to grow
and collect more snow.


Perching on a branch with no snow.
A scarlet red cardinal putting on a show,
bobbing to and fro,
as the northern winds blow.



Yes, trees covered in snow is a winter blessing bestowed on us foolish people who live in the great north.
I love snow on trees.  Snow on roads, now that is another matter altogether.
