And I Will Blanket You
 
It is winter and time for hibernation.
Turn your back to the wind.
Lean low and feel the
Earth cooling,
Resting from delivery.
Another year will come and her
Returning warmth will waken us.
But right now, let us bide,
Lie down and slumber at her side.

Audio and Author Comment~

Some people like to work.  Working is good and a magical cure for any number of problems.  There are times, however when working is just an activity, nothing more.  Maybe that is the time to bide, lay low and rest. 

We are currently snowed in.  Even though we only have inches, here in Oregon inches are enough to stop all rational activity.  There is usually a solid layer of ice underneath of that snow.  We are told to stay home.  So, home it is. With beautiful visions of white. With quiet neighborhoods.  With a mental rest from the hoopla of the world.  I hope that you can have time to bide and slumber beside the earth, rest awhile while waiting for spring.   skp

Even cold and ice has its beauty. Wildlife don't seem to mind too much.
