A note to Winter.

Dear Winter, 

Thank you for being so mild, for letting the sun shine through on crisp blue sky days, 

for keeping a lot of rain and wind away.  

Thank you for delivering just enough cold weather to make me really appreciate spring.  

Thank you for bringing us snow - SNOW!  

The winter illnesses we will forget, but the magical snowflakes that fell from the sky for 2 days, 

the snowman we built on the front lawn, that we will remember.

Winter, thank you......for being over.
