Take a Bow

16x20, oil

SOLD

The elements beat at our back,

We take what we'll allow.

We won't back down without a fight,

With pride, we take a bow.

Baby, it's cold outside

I look out at the wonderland,

Always my memories slide.

I shiver in the blankets white,

Baby, it's cold outside.

In St. John’s, Bowering Park.
