Here we go again

Snow! Snow! Snow!

On the roofs, roads, sidewalks and gardens

 

Poor John had to work hard cleaning snow

From the sidewalk in front of our shop

 

But not me I was glad to see snow falling

On the butterfly bush and other trees

 

I sat comfortably by the bedroom window

Gluing my eyes on our backyard garden

Falling snow accumulating on branches

White puffy cotton creating snow flowers

 

Snow never lands on Thai soil

Every time it snows

Is like my dream come true

 

We enjoyed playing in the rain

It came down heavily

Like cats and dogs.

Little girls and little boys

Came out of the houses

Playing in the rain

 

Laughing, playing with each other

That was my life as a little girl

Up country in Thailand

 

I wanted to see the white snow

Come down from the sky

 

Now snow falls gently

Peace exists in this moment

With Mother Nature

For she is nurturing us all

 

Beautiful spring arrives soon

Transforming the earth

With blossoms and greenery

 

Let us enjoy each moment of life

Finding happiness together

For the well being of us all

I produced this painting in 1974 when I took a few art classes at Rutgers University.

Turner the British painter inspired me to produce this painting in 1975.
