Winter rears it's timely head;
As the fierce northwinds blow,
Across the snowy terrain an Eagle flies,
Above the slopes of Colorado.

The Colorado mountain peaks;
Snow covered like a blanket,
Seems to uplift Mother Nature's voice,
In soft echo's as to thank it.

These snow capped Rocky Mountains;
Although so dangerous, they appear
Are looked upon with reverence,
By the skier's every year.

What a beautiful site for the skier's;
As they watch the snow pile deep
They don't seem to mind at all,
That these Rocky slopes are steep.

They glide down these snow capped mountains;
All laughing as they go,
Just soaking up the beauty,
Of this Rocky Mountain snow.
