One the most beautiful birds ever
Depending where you are, it is winter. In Australia, a fire is still being fought in its their roasting heat winter.  In stretches across the U.S., Midwest, East and Northern states are having a cold winter, with snow in parts and bitter wind for all.

Not too much to say about winter, except it gets cold and snowy and windy in many places.  Here is performance of the Boys Choir in Kings College Cambridge. The poem is written by Christine Rossetti, a renown poet.


YouTube about 4 minutes long

Beautifully sung. A little on the slow side, so I would fast forward.

In a Bleak Midwinter by Christina Rossetti



Choir of King's College, Cambridge, England


In a bleak mid-winter

Frosty air made moan,

Earth stood hard as iron,
Water like stone;

Snow on snow

In the bleak mid-winter
Long ago

Christina Rossetti
