Ghost Shadows

Waking to a clear

cold morning

She was surprised

by the heavy frost

 

Sparkling like a

blanket of tiny

diamonds covering

the world

 

Clean…

Pristine…

Undisturbed…

Her footprints

appeared like

ghost shadows

showing her path

 

Quiet…

Calm…

Peaceful…

Even the dueling

roosters and owl

were silent as she

made her way

along her morning

walk

 

Refreshed…

Rejuvenated…

She returns home

to begin the day…

Cold Snap

Source: We Heart It

November…

brings the first

true cold snap

and a light frost

 

Crisp air

Refreshing

Sun warming the day

 

Some say

“Good football weather!”

 

For me…

Sweaters…

Jeans…

and 

Boots…

 

Winter is peaking

around the corner…

Autumn Dawn

Source: We Heart It

Dawn

Dawn Walk

Fog on the horizon

Pink tinge to the sky

 

My skin prickles

as mist feeling like

early frost touches me

 

A surprising coolness

settles in before the

morning begins to warm

 

Giving a hint of

what is yet to come

 

Autumn…

Night Frost Haze

Image: We Heart It

Under the cold light

of a Wintery Moon

she strolls through

the woods

Frost falling around her

as she moves gives

the illusion of a blue haze…

A glowing halo surrounding

her long dark hair

Nothing hurried in her

movements

She continues on

her nightly mission

In her wake…

a black cat

weaving in an out of

her footprints

in the snow

Following like a witch’s

Familiar…

he travels along silently

and just as detrmined

Arriving home…

she bends down

removing her overshoes

and

lovingly stokes the cat
