Winter Morn
The cool colours of
A Winter Morn
Seen through dark branches
Barren and shorn
.
The crisp cold air and
A weaker sun
Remind you winter
Is not yet done*
.
This is about the only winter scenery I get to see, as most of my garden – and everyone else’s – is Evergreen.
Here you see dawn, as the sun rises through the bare branches of a neighbour’s tree; the pinky-purple sky courtesy of a few clouds.
*Not yet done. This is an Americanism. My younger daughter used to say it sometimes as a teenager. In English you would tend to say something is not yet over, or finished.
But, you know, it rhymes so nicely with sun!
Lol I had to look up “morn”

No worries – it isn’t in every day use, rather just poetically. 🙂

You would never know you took this somewhere with such a warm winter. Nice shot! (And “not yet finished” sounds so prim and proper to me – I never would have known “not yet done” is an Americanism, but now that I think about it, it definitely is (and is definitely what I would say).)

It is odd, but it does Feel cold – compared to summer temps anyway.
I never heard “Not yet Done” all my years in UK, tho they probably say it now – there is a lot of US TV out there (and here)! 🙂
