Through the windows of my eye
I can see how I could cry.
These streaks blurring my vision
This cold making me all indecision.
All cold and uninviting outside
The despair of winter unbeautified.
I would call these my tears for me and you
These sleety salty streaks –
Blurring my view.
.

Through the windows of my eye
I look outside all snug on my inside.
The wonder of snow, its beauty of yesterday
Now watery and slushy and all washing away.
The cold season of winter re-beautified.
The season of re-newal so justified.
I don’t see these streaks as “tears” at all
They’re the excitement of winter –
Our Christmas call!

Surprisingly, we got ours here in the southeast US also. I’ve never seen snow in December here.

We have never been very predictable with weather. But increasingly less predictable in my lifetime – moving from mild winters and summers to more “assertive weather” all over the spectrum.
