Drawing the Line


Stripes of first snow
Separate winter from fall

Highlight and shading
Pique like whipped frosting

White on color
Outlines December

Splits in two
Like winter half-moons

    Oh, what a lovely post! Thank you. As you probably realise by now, I live far from any hint of snow. So, although I would hate to actually live in the cold, these pictures are both pretty and interesting to me.

    The words and pictures are enchanting! Alas, no snow for us in the Philadelphia suburbs. Just lots of rain.

    I like your lovely lines! We have a dusting of snow which arrived overnight but with temps climbing back into the fifties (unheard of) by the weekend, it will be a brown Christmas for us. Beautiful pictures!!!

    You have drawn life, the life on earth. Catching.
