Winter
crystalline grace
farewell to autumn's warmth
hibernating until springs glow
dreaming

Snowflakes
falling to earth
amazingly unique
green pines whispering in silence
hopeful

Snow-owl
silent wisdom
wonders unfold in night
seeing past the veil of darkness

Author's note: snow is arriving
a time of change
Pine trees do seem to whisper - nice!
ReplyDeleteI can imagine our frost this morning is snow on the trees.
They do seem to whisper and they look lovely covered with snow.
DeleteI'll take to hibernating too, the white stuff is just ewww lol
ReplyDeletelol - when that stuff flies I don't like to drive so I may hide inside.
DeleteAh, the beauty of those 'green pines whispering in silence.' You have expressed well the beauty of the snowy world's wonder!
ReplyDeleteThanks Mary, there is beauty when the snow blankets the landscape.
DeleteThis is beautiful. I especially love the visit with the snow owl.
ReplyDeleteThe snowy owl can come visit me anytime, as I will listen.
DeleteElegant. It falls like snow. Maybe when we get some I will feel a clean slate.
ReplyDeleteThanks Colleen hopefully you like snow :)
DeleteWonderfully enchanting!❤️
ReplyDeleteWhile snow is a rarity here, I do admire the elegance of winter. And as we are well into the sweaty season your image and your words are a breath of cool restorative air. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't mind some sweaty weather...I do enjoy the warm months. Thanks for visiting.
DeleteOh, the pines love whispering in this season! I think they don't want to be lonely while the rest of life hibernates. Sweet.
ReplyDeleteTrue they remain green through all seasons
DeleteThese are beautiful! I love the pines whispering in the wind!
