Winterscape, for Lauren





Let our imaginations play
Through the frost of sunny day
Let us stroll among the green
Now bowed in white, beauteous scene





Feel the crisp! Of air so clear
Let me cuddle to you, dear,
And watch our breath in misty gleam
About our faces, in crystal sheen





Around us now, all does sleep
Except this love, by which we keep
Warm in hearts, in flames, transpires
To melt us thus, in our desires





Our summer days, behind us, so,
But in our hearts, a candle glows

Goosebumps!  Your words gave me goosebumps on
a late summer, very warm morning.
Beautiful Karilea...and loved the pics as well.
Challenge well met...I must take a look see.

The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blue blanket
I lean against the wind pretend I am weightless and in this moment I am happy

Lovely, lovely, and since we are experiencing 90 to 100+ days, it's a cooling way to begin the morning.

Aside from the welcome thoughts of cool...it is a fantastic poem, winter scenes with wondrous love mixed in...WONDERFUL!

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Thanks, everyone.  Ever since I figured out how to size my own photos, it's been heaven putting them with my own words...something I have been want to do for a long time.  It is now reviving my love of photography...

and thank You, Lauren, for the wonderful challenge!

(smiles) Awwwwwwww, I love this, sweet friend, this is beautiful, though I love the summer I also admire those special winter days around Christmas where families cuddle up together and share and give! (sigh) This is a wonderful portrait of beauty, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Karilea, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Winter in August...
Is that wishful thinking, Karilea?
I know its hot...but...
you wrote a beautiful poem.  I love the pics also....
