When I Think Of Winter

Sometimes around this time of year, when winter seems to be dragging on and on, we just need to be reminded of all the beauty that surrounds us.

Perhaps I’m blinded by my love of the season (I’ve never been one of those people who counts down the days until sunshiney weather) but I can’t help but swoon over icicles hanging off the porch, or snowflakes getting caught in the window screens. In those moments before they’re disturbed by snowploughs and passing cars, they hold such a pristine and almost angelic beauty.
