Windows on winter
Sun-blessed discoveries
On a chilly morn
Wandering ‘coon tracks
Across my back deck
Pressed in powdered snow
Glimpses of beauty
Branches of white lace
Tree spears stretching tall
Evergreens shiver
Showering snow flakes
To capture lost warmth
Fresh winter snowfall
Fluffy white crystals
Dusting winter’s day

What’s your writing day like?
Can you describe it in five syllable phrases?
~
Head throbs and tightens
Blurry eyes burning
Wrenched thoughts foot dragging
Writing suspended
It’s not a good day
One of these days dear friend, I’m moving in! Pics are beautiful, your talent is amazing. mE
Carol, thank you once more for a lovely post.
I woke to wonder
Sit and ponder
Put my will to the task
Write it down at last
Rest, sated, it is done
First a Tim’s Coffee
Then a short workout
Find the marking pile
Write comments and grade
Well, I guess that’s not highly poetic, but that’s my morning! Love you, Mom!
Beautiful photos and verses, Carol. Winter is awe inspiring, and you have shown the best of its splendor in this uplifting post.
Warmth and love delight
My day mingled with
Duty and pleasure
My hubby my cat
My blog and my stove
My thankful heart bows
These phrases are wonderful! You’re all very creative… and Earlene, you can move in any time. 🙂
Beautiful photos, Carol. Stunning. A poetic I am not, but here goes…
Writing day is so
Bitter cold, sun bright
Blinding, still lake white,
Blogging friends cheering
Trees waves bare branches
Life blessed, heart lifted
See! I can’t even spell poet! LOL
How about four: I need to sleep!
I recently discovered I can describe my whole book in a haiku. I was tempted to turn it in for a contest, but 17 syllables didn’t meet the 500 word minimum.
Wow, well done! Lovely words and lovely photos. 🙂
I’m not going to subject you to any attempt at poetry on my part….
Thanks for the windows into your beautiful world!!

A cup of hot tea
My brain clicking on
What was that story?
Isn’t winter beautiful? I’m almost sad it’s ending. Beautiful words!
87 degrees yesterday – I don’t do snow
Thanks for all your poetic descriptions.
Stephanie – Yes, wintry scenes are beautiful, but I’m really NOT sad that it’s ending. I’m more than ready for spring. Unfortunately there’s another snowfall weather warning for our area this weekend.
Dave – We don’t usually do much snow here, either, although we’ve had a few very white winters in recent years. I’m not too fond of 87 degrees, mind you. Heat and I don’t agree. So I guess I must be hard to please. I love spring and fall… mild temperatures, things growing, nothing too extreme. 🙂
