Winter birds, scramble; searching for some sustenance twittering like mad
A place to gather words before they get lost.
Winter birds, scramble; searching for some sustenance twittering like mad
Lightning strikes, glimmer - the horizon's simmering possibilities
Sometimes, silence is skin, thin with ash and burnt flame rubbed in; the ink of art disappearing, again
inspired (somehow) by Wendy's poem https://wentalearn.blogspot.com/2026/01/art-in-ashes.html
An empty field filled with diamonds
sunshine ice glimmers at beautifully unusual angles -
I've lost my sunglasses so I squint just to remember
one winter night in December when I was only an edge of a child
watching moonlight become sunlight; that lost world now seems too wild
inspired by Steve's poem (with a line lift, too) https://sleepingdog.mataroa.blog/blog/the-age-of-sunlight/
Hope can be a horse, a wild gallop through the fields with wind at your back
Yellowing, with spots, the Quince sports names like Smyrna, Dwarf Orange, Perfume
Fill the Slow Cooker up with the ingredients of a white bean soup
A midnight dusting of hoarfrost; whispered sugar on flower petals
Tree limbs and charcoal fuel the winter fire-pit we huddle around
How many snowflakes does it take to make a foot of snow? How 'bout two?
