winter hours

Is it snowing where you are? Winter hours are here and it is cold enough to wear thick wooly socks and warm coats made for a frosty weather climb. The flowering trees are now bare and the ground glitters beneath them.  If you look closely, the leftover pieces of automobile dirt blend against the milky white snow to look like Oreo Cookie crumbs.

The snow is ghostly in the moonlight and if you live on my street, you'll see a family of rabbits hopping about. They are made of ivory and shadows with red colored eyes. I usually find them darting between roads and sidewalks when we're walking underneath the moon. There are some things in the world you just can't photograph and some of these things are the most beautiful.

We walked outside in the frosty weather for this photo shoot, but I was not cold. My heart was squirming wildly in my chest and my coat kept me warm. I rolled down the hill and let the snow tickle my entire body. There were no thoughts of Spring or Summer flowers, all I could think about was how much joy the snow had brought me.
