Winter 2012

Photo's took of the snow

And how they captured me so

with its constant flow

~X~

I love how nature takes beauty

creates and makes

and yet

after the big show

leaving us in awe

she does something even more special

As if caught weeping

frozen in that very moment

suspended

as we bear witness 

I adore this photo so very much

though frozen solid ice

and left to simply hang

if you look oh so close

you can see the water and air

trapped inside 

in a frozen cocoon

awaiting the sun

As if the plant was caught with it's tongue out

now trapped in a coat of ice

I love how light reflects of snow

trees walls paths plants

and comes back at you

through the flash you sent out

mysterious yet....

ghostly

Light Twisted through the branches

as if to make a star shine 

so very bright

Spooks an surprises

Ghosts and Goblins

or even

woodland tree Nymphs

all reside here

The snow upon the branch

reveals the way the wind blew

when the snow fell

clinging to the barks surface

now frozen in time

Fingers reaching perhaps

for the skies that froze them so 

I liked this photo as soon as I had taken it

at first it seemed to me just frozen water/ice

but then upon looking carefully

it's as if a creature perhaps a slug

has become frozen in its tracks

Carpets of colour

be it moss

bark or even snow

the colours ever present

Life emerges pushing on

and though frozen and as if trapped

in it's icy grip

still it reaches on high

A Ice Shelf over hanging

each piece interlink

and as if I could take my hand

and slide it behind the ice fall

Diamonds perchance 

left by Jack Frost

to collect on his way home

or collected ice particles shining the way

The many trees weighed down

by the nights snow fall

as if sprinkled

by the B.F.G

Within the bough of tree

nesting warm those

that feel the bitter cold

safe in the innards away from the snow

Even as high and far the eye can see

nothing is missed 

from Mother Natures

winter snow brush

Landscapes filled with snow

freshly laid as if a new carpet

and yet beyond

the colour and warmth beckons you so 

The mighty oak how mighty it stands

and though bear

no acorns no leaves so

how proud it still stands waving to all

Though white and ever-so bright

from top to tail

and side to side

one can still see the hues of blue

Such weight such mass

all piled upon this bush

that grows so small

and yet how strong it shows

Sparkles and glints 

piercing to the very eyes

beauty within as you see

the prettiness that burst on out 

A walk I took

Alone I thought I surely was

but there in a line

stood the trees to wave me on by

During summer when adorned with leaves

this sight never to be seen

upon the winter when looking

I get too see through this window so

As if a ghost of a tree

reaching out to touch 

your shoulders so

scared you be

A witches wand perhaps 

captured as she fled

from the frozen scene

now held fast in Jack Frosts grasp 

Frozen jewels for the Ice Queen herself

collected en-mass 

and delivered on a post

as she's sure to pass on by 

As you peer into the depths so

you see the ice formations

and air bubbles below

is it not magical this show

Natures gift to Mother

a fine crystal chandelier

to hang from above

as she paints the way

Frozen fingers trapped ever-so

paused mid flow

as if reaching nay pointing 

to the very riches that maybe below

Next time on Photo's

with words

Summer an Spring

 it will be an amazing show
