Description
Crisp, Clear And Cold
That’s the way it is
This morning
Frost on the pumpkin
Or there would be
If I had one
It’s clear as a bell
Blue skies
Just walking out the door
Wakes me up
Gives me a jolt
Autumn depresses me
But winter
Brings me alive
Bassackwards for sure
Just a few more days
And the days get longer
And my mind
Wraps itself around
That thought
And I see light
Winter solstice dark nights
Special time
I seize these precious days
As though they are
Gifts from the goddess
Amazement and awe
I’m thrilled
By these most brilliant
Blinding breathtaking
Days and nights
Course it will all change
In a heartbeat
The rain will come
Clouds will darken the sky
And I’ll still embrace
This time of year
I’m renewed
Recharged full of energy
Bassackwards I know
Just a few more days

Super creative. Thanks a lot. 5+.
Beautiful narrative to go with a beautiful photo capture. That water sure seems icy cold, but quite captivating, too.
Getting that Jolt every day here in the UK sweetie, it's getting spiteful this year...Lovely prose and shot!
wonderful work warm hug, Linda
Cool poem and capture~!
i'm of a similar cast of mind. great thought and a great shot!
Awesome poem!
Another profound exercise in the realm of introspection. Autumn would also depress me if we ever had it down here in Southern California.
Autumn is such a strange time of year...a sort of in-between twilight place/time. Winter is definitely where I come alive as well...well, Summer too...but it seems that winter has its own special powers and you've captured that. The image that accompanies the text is wonderful as well.
Winter isn't my favorite! I'm not looking forward to the cold. My cousin is moving to Fairbanks. She went up there last February, got off the plane and walked out into 25-below weather, said, "Dang, that's cold!" and absolutely loved it. I would have been running back for the plane!!
I do like it nice and warm to hot, so it does seem a little bassackwards to me hahaha, but you did discribe your feelings wonderfully my friend, very nice writting
I keep waiting for that day Marilyn when I will feel fully recharged and ready to take on anything, but the waiting seems to go on and on and on! thought provoking stuff !
Cool, Crisp, Clean Air!!! Nice Photo, too!!!
Crisp and refreshing words, with a wonderful accompanying photograph!
Great title for a greta pic. I just wish winter wasn't such a pain to drive in. Ask the folks who got caught at Donner pass in the earlies!
