I Heard a Bird Sing in Winter

I heard a bird sing
In the dark of December,
A magical thing
And sweet to remember.
We are nearer to Spring
Than we were in September,
I heard a bird sing
In the dark of December.

    I just looked at the weather forecast for your neck of the woods, and it said "bitterly cold" as in below zero on Tuesday night ;-(
    Love, Mom
