DESCRIPTION
Ugh... It's still not happening, is it? The first snow fall of the winter-- that stays? Like so many other things in life: we don't value what he have until it's missing. Truth be told, I can do without the snow squalls and freezing rain, the brutally cold biting winds that make your face want to jump ship: but it's all part of the wonderful, beautiful package called 'winter.' Am I crazy?

Hungry for SNOWFLAKES?That’s right: you know what I’m talking about... Right? Am I the only one? Nawh... I can’t be. I know, most of you use the whole ‘I hate winter in Canada’ testimonial to cover for our apparent absentee snowbanks-- accompanied by the requi- site snow forts, igloos, &and snow people that our country is expected to have! Sorry, I know I’ll be okay: I can beat this addiction to snowfall, right?
But howpatriotic or north- ern can wefeel this time of year without a dash of white winteriness? Mmm?
I am happy to report thatmost of the people I talk towhen we really talk openlyabout Ottawa vs. wintereventually acknowledgethat Christmas and winterare usually an appropriatepairing.
My snowboots feeluseless... I’m not reallyyearning for hot chocolate or roastedchestnuts right about now. Yes, I knowthat it isn’t July out there but I’mstill trying hard to manufac ture my own winter wonder- land.
Nothing feels likecatching �u�ysnow�akes on
your tonguewhen you think
noone’swatching...
Her frosting falls softly on your eyelashes
Dressing your face in winter’s tender kisses.
Softly dancing on each flowing breeze
Dressing trees in lace and sparkling splendor
Splendid in her holiday dress. Mistress snowflake: will you
visit methis coming winter? Angeled snowy banks are coming...
busy snowfolk still are waitingto be rolled and born and dressed.
Frosty feelings on my fingers?Softly tickling my nose?
Dressing all my world in wonder...Winter happens when it snows.
