SIGNS OF CHRISTMAS

We want so much for snow to fall
But through it all, nature predominates
Many signs though of festive proof
even though no snow appears on roof

Berries protuberant, and holly too
Ice forming amidst the water blue
of lake or pond and a stream or two
As the signs of winter transpire and ensue

Carpets of golden leaves still show
But alas no emergence of sleet or snow
Checking weather apps frantically
To bet odds-on for flakes to see

As quickly as comes the morning dew
Glints of misty light shoots through
The dark of days in GMT
Will give way to light in BST

But wait is that the sound we hear
Of church bells and carols drawing near
The children getting ultra excited
As Santa and reindeer are reunited 

Yes signs of Christmas start to show
But yet again no sign of snow
Who cares we say, no need to cry
But underneath.... we know we lie
