I am an new writer who enjoys expressing my thoughts through poetry, travel and well being tips

Steps outside my door I stop to see a proud evergreen

A calm but commanding sight sure to be seen

Covered in bright blankets of plush new snow

Cottonlike and clean with a fresh pleasant glow

Like a welcoming guide to a serene street view

Of winters beauty to be witnessed anew

A comforting presence of natural grace

The roots are strong and firmly in place

Pine cones near the tree top appear like natures jewelry

Sometimes our imagination leans toward silly things to see

A fresh fine look after a fluffy snowfall

Dressed up and appearing quite pretty and tall

Sparks up inspiration to branch out and see ever more

As each day can bring a fresh view changeable from before

With a spring in my step, I hear snow crunching under my feet

Appreciating the little things that can bring a feeling more upbeat.
