As I sit in the heat of summer days
The sun beats down with relentless rays
A warm musky breeze drifts through the air
I can hear a ball game in the distance some where
The hot glowing sun begins its descent from the sky
A startled deer in the woods goes bounding by
I turn on the fans and put the children to bed
And thoughts of autumn start to fill my head
How I love the very first snow
The snowflakes dance putting on a great show
Everything is silent you don't hear a sound
And a sparkling white blanket covers the ground
Sometimes I get up in the middle of the night
Just to watch this awesome and beautiful sight
It makes me feel I am the only soul around
Like discovering a place no one else has found
A magical moment that the lord let me see
I creep back into the house a great peace within me
