Lamplights all aglow
As delicate flakes of snow
Cascade slowly by

Beautiful view, lovely painting in less is more fashion!

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Amazing how such a small poem can be so full of visions. Beautiful!
Laugh often, love much, live well.

So delicate, capturing the softness and beauty of snow, sparkling in lamp light.

Like this. Warm regards, Pat

(smiles) Oh Linda, this gorgeous vision reminded me so much of matchbox twenty's new song "Bright Lights" which I absolutely love:

"Baby, baby, baby
When all your love is gone
Who will save me
From all I'm up against out there in the world
Maybe, maybe, maybe
You'll find something
That's enough to please you
But if the bright lights don't receive you
You can turn yourself around and come on home"

From Bright Lights: matchbox twenty
"More Than You Think You Are"




Yay!!! (kiss on cheek) This glows with such beauty, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

How neat. The idea of a slow snow cascade is lovely.

What a lovely image you just gave me.  Thank you!  

The stars will shine when I am gone,
the earth will turn on as before,
the gulls, still race along the shore,
the morning star, still kiss the dawn

Earth Angel - and as I walk by I see the lamplights all aglow and read your poetry, as delicate flakes of snow pass slowly by...

Thanks for the lyrics of that song!

Hi, there Bill!

Ooo! It sounds lovely when you put it that way!

Cher  ~

I appreciate your kind words!

Sue  ~

LOL  Well fortunately (considering where I live!), I love being outdoors and in the snow! I love to skate, toboggan, make angels in the snow, build snow men and snow forts...
Part of me will always be a little girl who loves to play in the snow! I even love snowball fights! The cold rarely bothers me! I bundle up and love the frosty fresh air!--and the beauty of the snow-laden trees is a wonderful sight to behold!
*********************************************

I would like to thank you all for your thoughtfulness and putting a smile on my face!

~ May the joy of the coming season be with you throughout the coming new year!
