Snow, Part Two

Last remnants of summer
Forgot it’s time for slumber
It’s way past September
Look it up in the calendar
It says: January

“Getting an inch of snow is like winning 10 cents in the lottery” Bill Watterson

Snow, Part One

A fresh coat of snow
With a wintry glow
Life getting more slow
Just follow the flow
Even if you really
Don’t like snow

The Halo Effect (Daily Photo 2016-01-05)

What a surprise
Up in the skies
The sun got its halo
She was trying to lay low
But somehow
She was found
And awarded
With a ring of light
Shining ever so bright

Winter Morning

Early winter morning
Early, before the dawning
Fresh tracks in the powdery snow
Carefully found before the wind blows

The snowflakes frozen
Glazed against the window
Ski tracks on the ground
But not a soul to be found

The crescent moon
Present before noon
But not far behind
The sun with its shine

“The magical way the wintertime warms you up is through its frozen beauties!” Mehmet Murat ildan

Blue Moment, Daily Photo (2016-01-04)

Something old
Something new
Something stolen
Something blue
A moment in time
Forever frozen
Captured
By an image
In the mind’s eye
And possibly
Forever
In bits and bytes
