The Cauld Sunbeams

A lik the air crisp,
Gentle but no welcomin.

Warm breath flittin hazy,
Cheeks beamin rosy.

Crunchy steps underfit,
The russle ae yer jaiket.

The still daylight air,
An the cauld sunbeams.

Crisp an bright but no breezy,
Welcomin but no warm.

The peaceful kind ae winter,
Wi the cauld sunbeams.
