My friend Jackie sent me two photos of what she calls her Winter Wonderland. I choose the one she took of her backyard, because it abuts a small forest of trees where deer come out and nibble in her yard. I penned a short rhyme to go with the photo.
Thanx, Jackie!
Winter Wonderland
Trees in winter—- bare limbs blanketed with first snow
are part of the winter wonderland—a beautiful sight.
Even without their leaves, the trees give me delight.
Each season the trees wear a different “costume:”
Granny Smith green in Spring and gem tones in Fall.
Summer’s leaves are lush; even in Winter, trees enthrall.
I love the trees all year long,
enjoying these beauties in every season.
Celebrate trees, whatever the reason!
P.S. I received a greeting card with a quote by Ralph Waldo-Emerson that seems perfect for this photo & poem:
Nature always wears the colors of the spirit.
