Shadow Shot Sunday...Promise...

Crisp tendrils wrap 'round
twirls in my garden's winter
soon all will be lost

shadows of Winter
linger still in a season
so dreaded of me

yet the beauty still
haunts my soul to distraction
in my heart of hearts

I promise to thee
to open welcoming arms
next Win'try season


Yeah, WHATEVER...
I'm not a Winter person, but I live in my soul state of IOWA...
the heartland of my being, so it is what it is...I stay
and deal with winter...
and I promise, these are the last shadow shots of snow, but I thought
what a fun epitaph to Winter...in my world...
now, it's on to Spring!
Ol' man Winter, you don't scare me, the sun is getting too high
for you to harm...so now I'm heading to work in the two new inches of snow
from the secrets of last eve...cause I know what lies ahead...
SPRING!!!

Sorry kids down under, I know Autumn will soon be upon
and we'll soon be seeing those wonderful shots at Harriet's place...
and I hope all of our Kiwi friends are safe and sound!

Namaste
