Wrapped in white
Snow is falling gently, steadily;
frost envelopes our world.
Mother Nature is creating
an extraordinary canvas.
Nudging us to press pause,
take in and admire her beauty.
Everything wrapped in white,
so calm, still, ethereal…
Offering peace and tranquility
I wish the whole world could feel.

No fees, set hours, restraints on time —
my outdoor treadmill suits me fine .
Prairie snow provides vast retreat,
with snowshoes strapped beneath my feet.
Crunching of snow the only sound
as I walk atop frozen ground.
Crisp, cold air upon my face
heightens senses, worries – erased.
Bright sun reflecting on the snow
gives icy crystals sparkling glow.
Deer, rabbits, fox may happen by,
or owl glide across the sky.
All of this, just out my door –
nature’s gym, yet so much more…
Grateful to have waiting for me,
such splendor and tranquility.
