Snowed In On Green Hill Farm
Acrostic poetry by Tonya R. Hengerer
“Snow”
Softly falling–
Not a sound,
Only
Whirling, whirling to the ground.
“Winter”
When
Icy, cold weather
Naturally interrupts
The warmth
Enjoyed upon Earth
Radiated by the sun.
“Shovel”
Something with which one
Heaves snow
Out of the way; a
Very useful,
Everyday tool–mostly
Languishing in a shed until winter.

Lovely photos. The dog does not look too happy. Love the mailbox with the little mound of snow and the birds of course. Stay warm.

You make them look so easy, but I know how difficult they are to write.
