****"Springtime is the land awakening. The March winds are the morning yawn. "****Some beach somewhere, there’s a big umbrella casting shade over an empty chair. Palm trees are growing, warm breezes blowing. I picture myself there, some beach somewhere.” ********"Autumn burned brightly, a running flame through the mountains, a torch flung to the trees. "***** Winter Beauty When it's winter in the Valley and my breath hangs in the air, The snow will crunch beneath my feet and glisten in the air. The stars at night light up my world so I never walk alone; It's clear and crisp and beautiful in the Valley I call home.
