"Standing in a valley,
With the mist coming in,
Berries grow on the holly bushes.
Robins hide in snow-ridden woods.
If I could stay here, I would."
- Bethan Williams
Hilltops are now powdered with snow... and it's a wonderful sight in our place where it never snows. Everytime i go out, my eyes are straining in the distance... in all directions... to catch that immaculate light dusting... the cold winter kiss on the peaks. The sight instantly warms my heart for no apparent reason. The cherry blossom trees are still in their full-bloom, thought the incessant rain and the strong winds would have carried away the delicate flowers. The recent rainstorms have left a wake of the liveliest green on the slopes and tree tops.
Coincidently, the stores are also decked in green... in preparation for
St Patrick's Day(falls on March 17th this year)shopping. Feb,so far, has surprised compared to previous years, but it's been good so far, so no complaints, except for the sore throat!
