The First Snowfall ...
“Oh
the first snowfall of the winter
Was
a day that we all waited for …
Oh
the first snowfall of the winter
Jingle
bells wove their spells ever dear
Under
wintry skies of gray
It
was snowing hard all day
And
it showed no signs of stoppin …
On
the first snowfall of the winter
Oh,
that first snowfall of the year …”
~
“The First Snowfall”
~ written by
Paul Francis Webster
& Sonny Burke
~ recorded by the wonderful Bing Crosby
on November 22, 1955
~
Crosby was the first popular singer
to record Christmas songs.
All
is quiet as the snow softly continues to fall as sunset draws near during the
first snowfall of the season at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania.
Though the first snow fell December 9, 2017, a few weeks before the official
beginning of winter, it blanketed the late autumn landscape with the hushed
beauty of winter.

All Too Soon ...
“All
too soon we had to part
The
moment you had touched my heart
And
with you went my dream
All
too soon …
You
should know as well as I
Our
love deserves another try
For
you whispered goodbye
All
too soon
Too
soon”
~ “All Too Soon”
~ 1940 song composed
by Duke Ellington, lyrics by Carl Sigman,
by Duke Ellington, lyrics by Carl Sigman,
recorded
by other artists including
Ella Fitzgerald
After
rare warm February temperatures, this daffodil bloomed all too soon at Trexler
Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania, then whispers goodbye as it wilts all
too soon after a March snowfall.
Daffodil,
Jonquil, Narcissus … whatever name you choose, it’s beauty is gone all too soon about a week before spring is set to bloom.
