Nice, Bob! Consider moving the stanza with the melodic lift to be the third stanza; rules are made to break, of course, but sticking to the rule of two may be warranted since this is a slower piece. Good lyrics with some cool furniture!

Exceptional lyric writing. Love that acoustic. I'll have to use that sometime.

"I let the faucet drip like a grandfather clock
Only 8 degrees it’s too cold for a walk
Our Navajo blanket and a murder of crows
Tell me tonight that it looks like snow"
Terrific imagery!
You have such a wonderful conversational tone in so many songs and often we’re reminded of Lucinda Williams.
The vocal change at the “spring” verse was very effective in bringing to mind the vivid scenery change.
The outro “na na’s” were great too.
Perfect band for the lyric.
Merry Christmas!

Hi Bob,
What a wonderful song you made!
The lyrics are beautiful. I really like the picture you've painted in there.
And man, what a nice play on the guitar. Very nice to listen to.
I read that someone considered it to be one of your best songs.
I always hesitate to use those words. Especially since you have so many good songs.
But I do think this one belongs high on the list!
I wish you very happy days and until 2024,
Hans

Mellow like slowly falling snowflakes. Very nice imagery in the story.
What a pleasure to listen to your voice, the whole wide range.
The instrumentation supports the vocal very naturally, the percussions work perfectly.
Your recognizable style is warmly present, but still this has something new and magical that warms even more.

Beautiful song Bob. Wonderful imagery in your lyrics. We are lucky to live on the edge of a forest. See wildlife all the time. Super vocal and lyric..

Bob, Very neat winter tune. Very good vocals. I read lyrics first and first verses... I though I was reading Shel Silverstein  (Please take it as a complement) Clear mix and listens very well. Thank you for sharing. Misha.
