what speaks to me
crows, in groups of three.
a tree that stands, alone, in a field.
yellow daffodils whose smell is louder than their color.
a never-ending winter that i have made my peace with.
the promises that life has whispered in my ear.
this silence that pours into me like honey.
unopened buds singing songs of tomorrow.
a branch, extended like a hand,
to land on.

WHAT??????……
you made peace with this winter…..you trader. don’t leave me standing here alone with this icky bitter taste still in my mouth…
although i have to say, after a walk yesterday and the promise of sun and warmth all week, the taste is beginning to turn into cherry snow cones.

Love the photograph here and the things that speak to you. So glad you’ve made peace with the never-ending season. Maybe now it will begin to end.

Beautiful – that tree reminds me of the Statue of Liberty, reaching high, so proud and tall.
