Harmony: Winter (The Daily Post)

The Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge: Harmony

Winter

“Art is a harmony parallel with nature” Paul Cezanne

Winter

Cold, white and monochrome
Nature silent under the snowy dome
But, when the sun paints a triple rainbow
The beauty will bring you to an awe

Summer

“Art is a harmony parallel with nature” Paul Cezanne

Summer

In the cooling summer breeze
All the wild flowers will breathe
Until it is time, for the winter’s freeze

“March, when days are getting long,
Let thy growing hours be strong
To set right some wintry wrong.”
~Caroline May, 1887

Blue and White

Blue skies and snowy white waters
The sun burning ever more hotter
To bring the winter to its slaughter

Blue Shadows

The March sun high up in the sky
Painting tall shadows with a blue dye
Across the snowy bed letting them lie

“The snow doesn’t give a soft white damn whom it touches.” ― E.E. Cummings

Fluffy, Soft, White (Daily Photo 2016-01-10)

Fluffy, soft and white
In the softest of light
Tiny jewels flickering
Waking the slumbering
Into a bright white blossom
In the snow as light as cotton

“Being glamorous is about strength and confidence It’s black and white – dramatic You have to be strong” Catherine Zeta-Jones

White

White or off-white
The white knight
Of the floral world
Traditionally pearled
Fully in bloom
Filling the room
With light
Ever so bright

Part Four: Winter

winter 1

“In the depth of winter I finally learned that there was in me an invincible summer” Albert Camus

Winter

Brightness surrounding
Snow’s blanket covers all
Feeling my heart pounding
Cannot help but feeling small
The world seemingly wider
Nothing, but snow as a divider

August Skies, Photography and Poetry

Photography and Poetry

“August, the summer’s last messenger of misery, is a hollow actor” Henry Rollins

August Skies

Blue, darker, black
White, grayer, black
The days are getting shorter
The sunlight but a quarter
The clouds gathering
Soon the sun capturing
More rain to be expected
Into our souls reflected
In the August skies
The truth lies
The summer’s end

On the Edge

Photo 101: Day Eighteen: Edge & Alignment

 

“Living on the edge” Aerosmith

On the Edge

Sitting on the edge
On the top of the hedge
Staring at the skies
Oh, how time flies
Clouds of blue and white
Making me write
This little ditty
Of pictures ever so pretty
