Cold air approaching
In the distance, blue-grey skies
A winter storm soon

Cold icy thick glaze
Nature’s frozen white frosting
Diamond like twinkle

Poem – New Life
The morning cold breaks
Pierced by the warm sun rays
A world outside that’s so alive
Waiting on the summer haze
•
Magical fantastical spring
A harbinger of healing hope
Destroying winter’s frozen embrace
Natures way to cope

I wrote this a few mornings ago as I sat with my son while he ate his breakfast. I was sipping on coffee, enjoying the beautiful morning just glad to have a warm day in front of me. Now, today, I see it is ever so gently snowing. It isn’t much snow, barely can see it, but it is there. I think I called it snow drizzle because it is so faint. 34 degrees fahrenheit right now. Two days ago it was almost seventy degrees fahrenheit. Just crazy weather this year. Anybody else done with winter and wish it would just go far away?
By the way, Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!
Wearing of the green
On St Patrick’s Day it is customary to wear shamrocks and/or green clothing or accessories (the “wearing of the green”).
St Patrick is said to have used the shamrock, a three-leaved plant, to explain the Holy Trinity to the pagan Irish.[13][14] This story first appears in writing in 1726, though it may be older. In pagan Ireland, three was a significant number and the Irish had many triple deities.[15] The triple spiral symbol appears at many ancient megalithic sites in Ireland.

Haiku – Fresh Powder
Snowy frozen land
Blanket of white on the ground
Winter’s bitter cold

We finally got a decent amount of snow down here, which is the only part of winter I like. We’ve had our chances, but it always seems to miss us. I know people up North are probably sick of it by now, but if it has to be this cold, why not let it snow? Anybody agree with that statement?

A bare naked day
Trees stripped of their summer pride
Bright green in decay

Winter winds rattle
Bang and clang the window pane

Haiku – Bizarre
Snow and leaves falling
Winter and Autumn embrace
A cold icy dance

Snow flurries and sleet this early in November, hard to believe. It was sixty at noon today. Now it is cold enough for winter weather – just bizarre.

Haiku – May Day
A cool May morning
Filled with winter’s dying grey
Hides the warmth today

Poem – Haunting Winter
Merciless cold
Icy fingers
Tearing my flesh
Winter lingers
