The snow-covered mountain tops glisten
in the morning sunlight
And cast a dark shadow on the fields and lake below.
In these fields, sheep begin to wake from their night’s sleep,
While, in the forest, the foxes peep out of their holes to hunt their morning
snack.
Up above, a deer is roaming about the fell
And, further down the valley in the village, the church bell rings for 8 am
And the sun shines brightly once again.
High up on the peaks nothing stirs for these Winter weeks.
All this sun is melting the snow,
But even this can’t stop cars needing a tow.
Now Spring is coming and the walkers are humming
As they climb once more to the peaks.
