But She Dreams of Summer

As snow blows gently down to the earth

And blankets the ground and still higher,

She dreams of the summer flower.

 

White and grey, the colors of the earth convey,

But total bliss in the heart of the girl who dreams

Of the blue skies, green fields, or dancing streams.

 

The deadness of winter, but hopes of spring,

Make cold winter nights just a bit warmer.

As the young girl dreams still more of summer.

 

Sipping on hot cocoa or tea in a cup

Or cuddling under blankets with a journal in hand

Makes the girl dream of the sunny southern land.

 

But while the snow lasts, the girl still laughs,

Because she is never too old to have snowball fights,

 

Whilst dreaming of the summer starry nights.
