“A good snapshot keeps a moment from running away.” ― Eudora Welty

Frost

Like the icing on a cake
Or a frozen yoghourt and a milkshake
The window filled with frosted flakes
Away your breath will take

Winter 11

“Now is the winter of our discontent” Richard III, William Shakespeare

Nightfall

Soft white lights
In the middle of the night
All have taken flight
From the silent street
Not even a tweet
From the lonely parakeet

After all,
It’s no ball
In the middle of
Winter

Winter 10

“Now is the winter of our discontent” Richard III, William Shakespeare

Red

What a blast
The contrast
Not unabashed
As it flashed
Its red colour
All over

Winter 5

“Now is the winter of our discontent” Richard III, William Shakespeare

Blurred Bines

With a snow cover
On the top they hover
Not quite the clover
Still always on the upper
They say it’s a hopper

They call them the blurred bines
Yeah yeah yeah!

Winter 7

“Now is the winter of our discontent” Richard III, William Shakespeare

Bending not breaking

Swaying back and forth
Somewhere up north
In a forsaken part of earth
Where mother nature gave them birth

“Now is the winter of our discontent” Richard III, William Shakespeare

Snowfall

It pours when it snows
When the soft white stuff downward flows
But still something strong grows
Even if the wind really hard blows

winter 2

“Now is the winter of our discontent” Richard III, William Shakespeare

Snowy Cotton Balls

Fluffy and puffy
But still most toughie
Balls made of snow
In the darkness they’ll glow
Pick one up and whoa!
Then in a slow mo
It far away throw

“You don’t take a photograph, you make it.” ― Ansel Adams

White on White

White, off white, grey
Is the colour of the bay
In the deepest of winter
Or a picture from your printer?

“You don’t take a photograph, you make it.” ― Ansel Adams

Sunrises

Roses are red
Violets are blue
The sun is out of bed
In the sky’s avenue

Glass Houses

Heed this warning:
No stone throwing
Near the houses
Made out of glass
