Indian Summer
The garden glory
in fullest bloom.
Soon
days or weeks,
deep frost.
Stealing gardens breath
into a deep winters sleep.
yet
ever awake
ever a smile
upon the joyful faces
of Winter Pansies.
Smiling through the snow
and Winter chill.
Constant
promise of Spring.

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

Ellie, Your ability to always put a beautiful touch on any season amazes me. You seem to have the ability to always see the gifts that God planted here for us. Thanks for sharing your bountiful talent here with us.

love this

I just planted a bunch of flowers for my sweetie and it sure makes me smile everytime I open the door.
Pansies have the sweetest faces.
This time of year is so bittersweet.

I'm browsing around and found this - beautiful piece, just love the pansies. You always write so delicately and that is just so nice.
