a startled bench wakes
from hibernation as spring
pulls back the blankets
–photo by me

winter’s heavy hand
makes the new, young evergreens
bow to their elders
–photo by me

peaceful winter night
constellations of snowflakes
fall on the forest
–photo by me

nearing the hilltop
my shadow threatens to leap
into the blue sky
–photo by me

a delicious moon
floats on cotton candy clouds
in a sweet moonset
–photo by me

a piece of sunset
escapes and attempts to hide
behind chimney smoke
–photo by me

a grove of young trees
strike a pose with the latest
in winter fashion
–photo by me

an old crooked cross
leans into the cold north wind
its paint coat long gone
–photo by me

the sparse green army
stands guarding the hill against
mighty blue forces
–photo by me

in golden sunlight
the snow burns with flaxen flames
vestiges of fall
–photo by me
