in this bleak
weird winter
vision shifts
i search for red
my foil for sadness
what or who
has collected
these
in anticipation of
slim pickings
a touch of blue and red
wait
the road seems to wait for winter
which is playing games
for sure
vision shifts
wild vine
still has a few
grapes
just blue

almost a full bouquet of the seasons h ere today. the splash of color really does add happiness...we're having 40's and thunderstorms here. BTW, the official growing zones have been changed...most areas are now a half step warmer...I was a 5a now it's either 5b or 6a. Go figure - "yes, george, there is no global warming." cheers to the joy of a few berries.
henrietta, red is necessary today.
we keep getting everyone else's snow. boy would i like to happen upon some red berries! instead, ive been doing things i dont do often just to mix it up a bit: cooking dinner and cleaning the cat box!
if you can figure out how to share that snow...
That red really feeds me today....
I love and need red in the winter as well. I use red silk thread for a real cheer up at this time of year. I collected two boxes of red scraps for a quilt I'm planning - all red.
Yay, red!
the red is wonderful but I love the nest - a hoarder, just like me. treasures all.
what are they - crabapples?
val, judy, jean, the red IS so necessary, so helpful.
jean, you could curl up in this nest!
kaite, no, high bush cranberries. (i believe, i could be wrong)
Mmm...a time of waiting. Contrasts are so visceral.
faisal, YES!!!
A weird winter indeed V! We are experiencing it in small proportions on our visit here. I have been taking photos of the stark almost bare branches with their fruit or berries still attached - so beautiful and "new" to my eyes. I alsomlove the moments the red berries appear.
oh, fiona, i forgot! yes, a new way to read *bleak*.
V-I understand that at certain times blue is the new red. B
ha!
