.


A winter path
Over snow
Between two hills

On whose slopes
Slender birches
With upraised limbs
As if they were despaired

A crimson tint
On the horizon line
Above the sky
A clouded blue

It doesn’t matter
Where you go
One hears
No bird song in the air

Only the sounds
Of stoic plodding on
Branches creaking
In the cold

Thanks all

And no worry
I was moving in mood through the scene
in a painting.

Thanks again
