Winter Wilderness

(C) 2022, W. R. Cantrell, Jr.

The sun rose over the frozen snow 

Reflecting light put on an incredible show. 

The forest woke by the gentle breeze

As the warmth melted crystals from the trees

Sunrise and sunset in just a few hours

Not much time for daylight so far north 

Months ahead until we see spring flowers

It’s time to endure Nature’s course

Winter in the wilderness
Is a secret that’s well kept

Glacial forward progress 

Just a little as we slept

Longer days arrive slowly it seems

The wintry aura a white crystal sea

The thaw and melt are still in our dreams

That fades with time ultimately

Warmth has arrived, water starting to flow
Plant, growth, and harvest. A fresh new start

As we prepare for the coming snow

Soon Winter creeps back into our heart

That's great. Killer lyrics. But how can a guy living Texas write so well about weather that is more normal where I live?

Thanks for listening Andy! I wrote the lyrics in August 2022 when it was extremely hot down here. I was trying to think cold thoughts in order to cool off.

Thanks for listening Tao! Yes, the band is so much better than anything I can do on my own.

Yeah. Real nice job!

Cool lyrics. Good harmonies. Clear mix even through the phone.

And there’s always some extra magic when there’s a “real” band feel.
