Low lay the fog along the slumbering valley this crisping slow sunrise moment when you called me to the window. The firs were floating motionless tipped with gold, honey dripping down our tree- hung wind chimes; and slanted winter light glinting above the town of modest fuzzy, white iced houses below us; their chimneys’ wood smoke weaving lazily upwards into the cold, wide, slowly blanching sky - no longer holding its frigid black breath for dawn .

Rosemary, this is soooo beautiful! I love to read about the seasons and though my favorite is summer, I do think the snow is beautiful. I enjoyed this! Sauni Sauni :) Have you ever known the color grey when the nighttime finds you weak I have, I've walked that road each time; that's where my angel sleeps |

an exquisite picture - truly no painting of such scenes has ever remained so engraved on my brain as these words have managed |

I don't know how to thank you all any more with the new system. You'll never see my smile, but anyway, I send my appreciation to all of you for seeing the beauty of nature as I did! My soul is so enchanted by nature ... and it is so gratifying when I can write of some of it so that someone else can see a bit too! |

Now this is the Rosemary I remember. How I missed your verses. You write of nature in ways that I feel it as I read. This is so lovely, just picture perfect Liz |

Quite a painting and it amazes me how well you can stay within a shape. Well done! |
