Winter Magic! A poem by Bette A. Stevens
Hi, Friends.
Wishing you all a magical week whatever your weather or season…
Winter is still ruling at ‘The Farmstead’ here in Central Maine, but spring is sure to have its way before long. Meanwhile, we’ll revel in the beauty of a fresh fallen snow.

Winter Haiku by Bette A. Stevens
Nature’s beauty is inspirational, no matter the region or the season. Winter 2013-2014 (as of January 8, 2014) has been extremely cold in Maine and around most of the USA as well. Here in Central Maine, we’ve already had more than two feet of snow, several inches of ice and even some freezing rain on days when the air temperature rose above the freezing point and the rain froze as it hit the ground. Nature’s winter wonderland beauty is breathtaking; and, the work it requires is breath-taking, too if you want to leave the homestead… HAPPY WINTER! Stay safe and warm. — Bette A.

The weather today
Is full of leaves
Crunching as
Feet walk through them
The ground covered
With wetness
The air filled with musty
All is cozy inside
Without seeing
Or recognizing
The signs of
Old man winter
Is sneaking upon us
The weatherman
Just posted a
Notice to me
Starting Monday
Night a chance of
Six inches plus
Of that white stuff
You know it is called
Snow
Get your shelves
Stocked on toilet paper
And milk, get diapers
And bread, for winter
Has decided whether
I like it or not
To pay me a visit
Wait, what is that?
You want me to come
Back and visit?
I’m sorry friends
I must go for my
Bed covers are
Calling to come
Hibernate until Spring.
