in the slender
wealth of winter
there are small riches
waiting to be discovered.

i like to read
a similar
river snow
a thousand hills, but no birds in flight,
ten thousand paths, with no person's tracks.
a lonely boat, a straw-hatted old man,
fishing alone in the cold river snow.

Love walking in your woods and fields via your camera and words.

Love the picture at the top. Enjoy the rest of your holiday.
ReplyDeleteTodays post reads of a sort of sweet melancholy if that makes any sense and the photos are lovely. Also my thank to you for your advice with my novelette "Strange" I'm grateful for your input.
ReplyDeleteWarm regards,
Simone.
Serene photos Steven. Thanks for the window into your world.
ReplyDeleteBest post title ever! Oh yeah. Winter is thin, but so so beautiful. I like sparse. xx
ReplyDeleteIt's the only way to walk! Love Rumi's thought in your sidebar; when I get down, instead of wondering what it's all about, I'll remember it. Thank you, Steven. xa
