Snow Falling on Horses: And Winter Came, by Enya

It doesn't matter where you live, whether you've built your home in the heart of the sun-drenched Sahara or pitched your tent in Antarctica's Dry Valleys, which haven't felt the touch of rain in two million years. When you listen to Enya's CD, And Winter Came, snow will fall.

This collection of twelve contemporary Celtic Christmas and winter-themed songs will unfurl a blanket of unbroken snow over your travels, parties, or quiet moments, and raise a full moon for you into a clear night sky. Golden light will stream from nearby windows; laughter and singing will spill from welcomingly open holly-garlanded doors. Sleigh bells will ring and white horses will keep silent, enduring watch in their pastures.

By turns festive and reflective, And Winter Came will add a dreamlike sparkle to your holiday season. Winter itself will no longer seem quite so cold: in Enya's vocal and instrumental tracks, even the bitterest snowstorm becomes a silver hearth-fire that can bring friends and loved ones together, spark memories of times that passed all too swiftly by, and kindle that universal wish for peace on earth and goodwill toward all.

The only thing that's more fun than enjoying a great story is enjoying it with others. So pull up a chair, a tack trunk, or a hay bale. Pour yourself and your pony some peppermint tea. And, please, share your thoughts!
