Branches covered, dense
white, fluffy, natural art
a beautiful sight

Cold and so pretty
but not lovely as palm trees
framed by setting sun

(sigh) Soooooooo beautifully bittersweet, sweet friend, I love nature in all different forms; I love the snow on the tress and I love the palm tress in paradise! (kiss on cheek) Sooooooo beautiful, sweet friend, your words are always so precious! We all love you so much, sweet friend! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sandra, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Quite the contrast here Sandra.
I know you miss the warm beaches and palm trees.
Hope you are well.....Hugs, Nancy

Sandra, You make me long for summer, and to see our maple trees once again fluttering full. Well done. Chris

Sandra, this is a lovely thought, does it snow in California?

Well done, Sandra. Sounds like you miss those swaying sunny palms. Me too, yet,
    paper birch frosted in white
    is such a magical sight!

Sometimes, when I close my eyes, I see the sun coming up over a fortress of Evergreens and snow covered palms ...
... home is where the heart is, heart is where the thought begins.
Excellent write, truly heartfelt thoughts.

Hey there my dear Sweet thing,

You just put such a BIG smile on my face cause I can see you and me on that Moonlight beach just down from where you stayed this summer and that darn palm you took so many picture's of (I'm laughing right now) cause I remember telling you that they were so ugly, but now that I can see them through your eyes and this by the way is a BEAUTY of a piece I see them so different and miss them and YOU!!!! SO,SO,SO MUCH.

Love, Cerenity
