Spring locked in silence
Ice storm's frigid aftermath
Gardens shine in weep
Sprouts become green popsicles
Frozen liquid smooth

SEA, OLIAS, and Linda, thankyou all. Yes, Linda I suppose you know all too well as I do about the damage done from last evening's ice storm. My garden looks so sad. ~

(kiss on cheek) This is gorgeous, sweet friend, I love the picture too, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Chris, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!
