Nature is covered with deep winter snow Transforming my forest into something new A palace of crystals and glitter and ice Slowly in silence, eyes full of awe I walk through a quiet fairy tale world A squirrel is jumping between icy branches With frost in his thick winter fur Finches and tits bring some colour to winter Prancing in red, blue, green and gold With rooks shining black in the snow
A small flock of geese can be heard in the distance Searching for water still free of ice An eagle is soaring up there on the blue sky Next to a low hanging pale distant sun Soon to give way for the moon
I keep on walking slowly homewards It’s cold and the sun will be setting quite soon Now I’m longing for candles, hot tea and cocoa And I’m dreaming in wonderful mid winter air Winter is a magical land
