Morning Frost by Terry Redlin ~ The heavy frost glistens in the morning light. Winter is in the air. The icy coating is a precursor to the snow that will soon blanket the surroundings. As the horse-drawn wagon and its passengers leave the church and cross the covered bridge, only the dog knows the young boy is hiding there. As he crouched out of sight of the grown-ups, he is praying that he will not be discovered. He knows that with one bark, his secret will be revealed.
