It's Coming on Christmas

I snapped this photo while standing at my kitchen window yesterday evening.
Immediately after doing so the words from a Joni Mitchell song popped into my head.
I have no idea why...but they did.

It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on

But it don't snow here
It stays pretty green
I'm going to make a lot of money
Then I'm going to quit this crazy scene
Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on

I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
I wish I had a river I could skate away on

Maybe it was the tracks in the snow that made me think of skating,
Or just some other random thought process in my snow laden mind!
Non the less, it was a pretty scene that captured my attention and made me stop to ponder the words to a song!
