Winter Skies

Winter Skies

Winter Skies 1

A collection of verse

One

Look straight up on a winter’s day

When sun shines bright and clears the way

See blue touched by a silver band

Yet painted by no artist’s hand

 

Winter Skies 1

Winter Skies 2

Two

With wisps and tendrils lovingly

Jack Frost adorns the skies

And biting cold no longer numbs

You gaze with spellbound eyes

 

Winter Skies 2

Winter Skies 3

Three

Wafting on the icy breeze

Drifting over tops of trees

Soaring to the stratosphere

Floating ice-clouds soon appear

 

Winter Skies 3

Winter Skies 4

Four

When mystery and mists combine

In curlicues and columbine

Then all your heart could ever hope

Is drifting there beyond your scope

    Very good poetry! Love the photos. Very interesting clouds by you. Ice crystals, I gather. So whispy!
    What’s the temperature by you now?

      Thank you 🙂 The sky was lovely, my poetry not so hot but meh, I had fun! 🙂
      Temps here today a balmy 23C – yes it is mid-winter! But it was nearer 17C when I took the photos the other day.

        Pffffft. Baaaaalmy she says! 😉
        Sadly, the last week has been 17 C / 23 C for our summer temp! Very lame for us. Should be another 20 degrees warmer!
