There was sunlight in the cold
A friend when I needed one
The gold in the blue
The pink in the black
A cardinal’s song ringing out
Hugs goodnight
Icicle prisms
Old friends with love
Snow that sparkles
A dream and a vision
That stag in the moonlight
Red wine and chocolate
Laughter in the storm
A place to fall
Glimpses of green grass
There was a time to draw my own X.
