Sunday before X-mas for Daily Photo (three)

Posted in Daily Photo: Photography and Poetry

“Sunday clears away the rust of the whole week”
Joseph Addison

Sunday before X-mas

In a comfortable winter’s sled
A holiday heart, glowing in red
Cheer and joy, for a while it will spread
No one knows, what here it lead
Or where it will next head
So each night, before you go to bed
Whisper a wish to keep it fed

“Sunday clears away the rust of the whole week”
Joseph Addison

Sunday before X-mas

Icing on the red vines
Blurring, all the straight lines
Nature’s tableau refined
Like an artist’s work, defined

“Sunday clears away the rust of the whole week”
Joseph Addison

Sunday before X-mas

Peeking behind the closed curtains
Heart beating, in uncertain anticipation
What mysteries, lie behind the window
On a Sunday, filled with falling snow

In just a few hops
