Jack Frost
And his wife
Dancing across our meadows and our lanes
Freezing up the puddles
Decorating brimming drains
Challenged the Frost Giants to a fight
The Frost Giants breathed and huffed and sighed
The world turned white
Just look outside!

That makes for a pretty challenge for them; maybe less for humans who will have to navigate this frozen world!
Nicely done, missy!

Thank you, Dale. Today our land’s turned white… except here on the coast where the salt air keeps all but the deepest frosts away. I have to travel inland to find that fairy landscape

It didn’t. But it’s back again this morning. I even have frost patterns on my kitchen window!

Although I like to see it, I don’t mind not having it. As I age, I feel the cold more

I understand. I still like to have it here as it makes everything so much brighter. No snow and no sun means so gloomy. At least with snow, it brightens up a tad! And I love the cold less and less, myself.

It’s true, snow does lighten the scene. Several times this winter Met Office has forecast it. But here on the coast, scarcely a flutter, and that doesn’t settle

It really does. There were such drab days with no sun but it felt a little less so from the white snow

And winter has a special quality of light, enhanced by that whiteness of snow

My dearest Crispina. As ever dancing with the fays, as I wade deep into yet another misadventure of the heart.

Oh, Violet, there are no misadventures of the heart; there are merely opportunities to discover yet more aspects of our psyche.
