The Turn of the Year

Colourful burst of light
Against the darkness
Of the night
The clocks are churning
The new year is turning
Time for a new hope
And a new future

Snow Day for Daily Photo (three)

Posted in Daily Photo: Photography, Poetry

“And finally Winter, with its bitin’, whinin’ wind,
and all the land will be mantled with snow”
Roy Bean

Snow Day 

Still growing strong
After a very long
Cold and hard winter
“Ha, you said you were going to be the splinter
But we won this sprint eih!”

“And finally Winter, with its bitin’, whinin’ wind,
and all the land will be mantled with snow”

Snow Day 

The wind
But a whisper
In the winter’s shiver
When crossing
The frozen river

“And finally Winter, with its bitin’, whinin’ wind,
and all the land will be mantled with snow”
Roy Bean

Snow Day 

Huddled together
Without a tether
In this freezing weather
They are still glued
To each other

Seat in the Shade for Seat Sunday

Posted in Seat Sunday: Photography and Poetry

“A throne is only a bench covered with velvet”
Napoleon Bonaparte

Seat in the Shade

The scorching sun
Leaves you burning
Like an overcooked bun
Hoping the sun to fade
Trying to find shade
From this seat
In the shade

New Beginnings

Posted in Holiday Celebration

“The new year stands before us, like a chapter in a book,
waiting to be written.
We can help write that story by setting goals”
Melody Beattie

Out with the old, in with the new
May all your dreams, hopes and wishes
For the year 2017 come true!

OK, no more time to stall
So wishing:
Happy New Beginnings to One and All!
