Winter Quietude

January brings Snowmen and Mittens, Just a few of my favorite things. Cocoa, quilts, books of adventure, movies of yesteryear, and of snuggling by the fire. Oh, the quiet of Winter. In January, while the world may look forward to the impending year, I always pause. Oh, the quiet of Winter. Look back with love on thoughts of the past year, those special events in each of our lives, with private reflection. I cling to the quiet month, just as the animals hibernate, Oh. the quiet of Winter. Soon enough, February and March appears on our calendars. We clean, re-organize, prepare taxes and anticipate Spring. The world on it's axis, spins into tomorrow. Blessings, Brook
