Wheat stubble in snow
Interrupts a field of white
Nature needs a shave

A weak winter sun
Vainly struggles to burn through
Winter's icy fog

Winter. Old fence felled
by wind rests against an elm
growing bright new moss

winter claims her bare canvas
gusts of northern winds

Cautious snow flakes, lazy winds
No traffic at all

Cardinal lands on tree branch
Fire among the ash

While the wind seeks its own breath
Shadows blend the two
While the wind seeks its own breath
Shadows blend the two
