The one great thing about paint is it covers up what you don't like...Stay tuned for another reveal...I always have problems with backgrounds until the main subject is nearly finished...I think I've figured out this one, but we will see.

Working on floor cloths in the winter is not always easy...5-8 layers of paint, paper and poly are required and of course patience...That's a lot of P's

Roses in the Snow

ROSES IN THE SNOW


By


Mary K. Anson



When the hours are long and gray
with weather too cold to bear
 children’s antics light the day
 and their laughter fills the air

With little faces glowing red
like winter roses in the snow
they trudge along, with feet of lead
up endless hills, their sleds in tow

As the top comes into view
excitement builds along with fear
one flies down and then there’s two
as the rest gives out a cheer

The joyful sounds, all too rare
ring through the long afternoon
but then a moment of despair
the fun has ended all too soon
