In the Snow
In the snow
They go
These blue-grey ghostly,
Shadowy footprints in the white
Maybe even dead of night
To and fro
They never seem to
Slow
Even up the steps
They go
Do you possibly
suppose
Unbeknown they
May leave behind,
Expose.
A small piece of each
Imprint-owner’s Soul??

Cars Go Creeping
Cars are Creeping
Cars are creeping
& no one is leaping
On those icy streets
Parking lots are dotted
As with deicing salt they are besotted
& stores are hoping
their customers to keep
In my part of the world
Unused we are to this much ice
So even as much as they try
Still we must moan & cry
We need more Salt!
So every thing comes to a halt
As we slip & slide
Inexperienced with
this much Snow & Ice
Wave as we go coasting thru
(my car with a mind of its own
Is now imbued)
Unable to halt at all
At each or any little red stop sign!
Where I live we are not used to ice and snow hardly at all so almost everything comes to a halt with only a small amount of snow. This time, however, we got a large amount of ice (just glad the electrics did not go out). Hope everyone is having a good day and Praise God for His love, mercy & joy!
Graceful Ladies (just a bit of whimsy)
Graceful Ladies
(a slight whimsy)
Graceful ladies
All in a row
Is it just for glee
You choose to show
Your whitest underbellies
Shedding dark bark
You simper & glow
From top to toe
As you continue to
Strut in your underclothes!
My Mama would be shocked
Papa enraged
If I dared to engage
In such behavior
I cannot do the same
As you
Nor dare I choose
Such brave frivolity!
The large old sycamore trees along our river greenway are even more lovely in winter when, without leaves, you can see their white bark even better. Have a blessed day & Praise God!

Water’s Crystals
Water Crystals Crystals of light flung everywhere by a force of nature not quiet so rare yet still not within my feeble grasp Dancing merrily before my face Oh, to have such purely joyful grace to be able to fly with such abandonment I laugh as I watch your joy-filled dance And as I turn to leave unable to avoid a second glance you fall to return to the liquid foam where you now may rest within your watery home
I could not resist taking the videos of an early morning bike ride on our greenway which goes right by a river. It was cold, but the sun was out, and it was so nice how the bright sun reflected off the river. I enjoy listening to the sound of the rushing water. Have a blessed day!

Only a little snow
These snow covered trees reminded me of dancers. Have a good day!
Distorted Dancers Distorted dancers In the air Seeming not to know Or care How you fling your Limbs out everywhere Upward into the greyest Of Airs Or down to earth where I stand & stare I admire your courage But I do not think Without at least one blink I could such graceful dexterity Show I would have to surely stop & groan As I attempted about to Throw My limbs as you do So I will just stand And admire As your limbs reach upward As lofty spires Toward Heaven’s most exalted spaces And our mutual Father’s Loving graces.
As I was walking the greenway this morning, it was cold and snowing, but I caught some mallard ducks enjoying the icy water. I love the sound of the water falling over the rocks so I just thought I would try my hand at a short video. Please excuse the slight hand wobbles. Have a great day!
Not Bad for an Older Lady!
I got to ride my bike again today on a longer ride, almost ten miles. It’s my new hobby, and I love it! I am a 2X cancer survivor, and I’m grateful God lets me enjoy the bike riding. Each day feels like a gift to still be able to enjoy life with my family & friends. May God bless your day. Praise Him for his grace and mercy!!
Also I could not resist this photo of some beautiful, massive old sycamore trees at the water’s edge. In winter without the leaves, you can see their white bark even better. Have a good day!
