Reflections of Winter
Pine forests stretched up the sides of the snow covered mountains
Below the mountains lay a small loch
The snow was there to stay
The water on the loch was as calm as a mill pond
Moonbeams filtered across the tops of the mountains and danced on the water of the loch
The air was crisp and pure
A snowy owl flew silently into the moonlight
Moments before a mountain hare had passed by
The next day the snows would come again over this unspoiled land
Another day had past just one day of many
