Naked Trees and Winter Snow

what freaks of nature they may seem to be— tall trees—aerial bark skeletons of well-seasoned wood... well-seasoned wood piercing the skies... casting weird shadows across the terrain— their statuesque stillness...a poised assurance of the coming spring resurrection: if only we too… could stand in such blessed assurance.

snow on the trees and the bowed bushes make the cold stillness appear a 3d 'life' form...strikingly beautiful

So true! Thanks, sand blown. As I sit here looking out through the window, it snowing here in Virginia. Beautiful! I just pray that all will have a blessed day; free from harm and free from causing harm. Peace and Love, Millard Lowe.
