frost halo

in the morning
a frost halo


let that fragile gift
slide
ever so gently
onto the finger
of your imagining

Those halos around the sun are truly magical. I always think it's a good luck sign. Have a lovely weekend Steven.

dan - it's the easiest thing. allow yourself a period of time each day to look up. look down, look all-around. right!!! spend time in a kindie play area - like you do every day. enter a natural area without a goal in mind. thanks for the thoughtful wish! steven

What a picture Steven. You live in such a sublime area for images. I'm praying for such a sublime day tomorrow when our oldest daughter gets married. May there be sunshine of the gentle kind.
