1964. animals in the cold

as she reads in warmth

a bird perches right outside

at one with the cold 🦊❤️

Yulan and I talk alot about all of the animals that are outside in this bitter cold. She says that when we think kind and protective thoughts about them we send them a blessing and energy to persevere on. I will definitely think a lot more about them in that case. You should too!!!🦊❤️ 
 

1963. blowin’ in the wind

 

captured by the wind

shards of. glis’ning trash

decorates a tree 🦊❤️

The wind is howling. The trash is flyin’. Temperatures keep droppin’ 🦊❤️

1962. every little bit helps

 

racing to the scene

a little green wagon flies

to the snowy scene 🦊❤️

I had to pull over and take a photo of a cute little green wagon with wings. He looked so eager to lend a helping hand! 🦊❤️

1961. constantly changing

 

the endless patterns

shadows of trees on the snow

never standing still 🦊❤️ 

I have become fascinated by the shadows of trees on the smooth, brilliant snow. While their shadows seem to be standing still, they are in constant motion, ever so slightly, because of the earths movement around the sun. Every shadow is a sundial… 🦊❤️

1960. meeting in the middle

 

as the sun goes down

a tree’s shadow fades to meet

the darkening snow 🦊❤️

I stood watching white snow darkening and a black shadow fading to gray as the sun descended in the sky. Soon they will be the same.  A real meditation… 🦊❤️

1959. “that’s a great picture…”

 

such a sunny day

perfect for sitting outside

well… maybe not yet… 🦊❤️

We stood and stared at two bright red Adirondack chairs that were stranded in the snow. We both said simultaneously, “That’s a great picture!” Then we went on our way to get out of the freezing wind. 🦊❤️ 

1958. dirty little snowman

 

in need of a bath

a dirty little snowman

waits for a dusting 🦊❤️

In the glowing white snow, a frail little snowman all sooty and gray stood bravely, wishing for a coating of new fallen snow. 🦊❤️
