There is a Privacy About Winter

By Ruth Stout

There is a privacy about [winter] which no other season gives you .....
In spring, summer and fall people sort of have an open season on each other;
Only in the winter, in the country, can you have longer,
Quiet stretches when you can savor belonging to yourself.

Words inspired by the garden are the sweetest, most beautiful words of all.
