I love the quiet of snow falling; it's a special music to me. And I love the wind, but I hate when the wind blows all the snow off the branches. Maybe it helps out the branches by relieving them of weight - but hey! The wind could be a friend and blow some weight of me too! Ya know! A |

Wonderful, dear Marti. I could drown in that snowy silence ... I become deaf to "turbulences" and just enjoy BEING. Love, Margherita |

Alison, yesterday was a beautiful, quiet day although the wind was definitely howling. But it didn't seem to bother me like it usually does. I actually enjoyed watching it snow and listening to the sounds of the wind with some soft music playing and a fire in the fireplace. I had a hot cup of tea and our Lily dog snuggling beside me on the couch. ooxx Marti I do the MS Walk everyday!! |

Jackal, living in NH, it has been a long, snowy winter and I too am tired of it. I look forward to Spring. But, I like you, have to admit that it was a beautiful day yesterday! ooxx Marti I do the MS Walk everyday!! |

Isn't wonderful how we understand how the silence can be deafening.... Good writing and the pic's very fitting. Eric the writer views a critic like a fire hydrant would view a dog |

Nicely penned. I can hear that silence roaring inside my head. ~ Never did I feel more devoted to my wife than after biting the wild garlic of treachery ~ |

Marti, I loved reading your exquisite poem and looking at your photo and just drinking in the ambiance of a world unknown to me, except through you and other Pipsters. I enjoyed all of the replies too in their delicious diversity. Hugs to you and Lily-doggy Owl |
