Writing Winter’s White
Whispered words wrapping round
As slow snow whitely drifting down
Winsome winter-scape gauzy covering
Frosted trees with sunlight sparkling
Weeds transformed before my sight
First snow of winter, crystalline delight
Frosty pure, cleanly white
Piling the roads with fluffy might
Resident rabbit to petunias hops
Nibbling, gnawing, gobbling stops
As neighboring deer pauses to feed
On green grass now snow crusted weed
Mountain meadow talking to me
Alpine heights delightful to see
Fall came briefly and now must go,
Making way for first winter snow.
We were trying to hike and it looked a bit threatening - not wanting to get stuck in a blizzard that would swallow us up and hide the truck we hiked quickly back and then left - this photo was taken as we tried to get from the dirt road back to the main hgihway - obviously we made it but not without some white out moments.
