Today is a day for poetry and journaling. Seems the Bay Area has sent fog and rain our way…
Fourth Dark December Day
Pine boughs ripple in the breeze.
green against the white page of the sky.
Rain refrain while skiers think snow
Where is the sun? The slanted wheel
Invisibly tips over the horizon and
hides again before labor’s rest.
Fifth day without sun?
–Rebecca
I’d like to place a request for snow with sun. That would really recharge my battery!
¡Olé! –Rebecca
PS Thanks for thinking snow! We received several inches and the day looks brighter. Sun tomorrow? –R (see the last photo below)

Hoy es un día para escribir poesía y en mi cuaderno de anotar la vida. Parece que tenemos el tiempo de San Francisco; niebla y lluvia.
Traducción
Cuarto día oscuro de diciembre
Ramos de pino ondulando por el viento
verde contrasta con la página blanca del cielo
Estribillo de lluvia, esquiadora quiere nieve
¿Dónde está el sol? La rueda sesgada
invisible de nuevo bajo el horizonte
escondido antes del fin del día laboral.
¿Quinto día sin sol?
–Rebecca
Me gustaría pedir nieve con sol. Así podría alimentarme las pilas.
PD Llegaron varios centímetros de nieve anoche y el día está más brillante. Ojalá que llegue el sol mañana. –R
¡Olé! –Rebecca

I would send you some snow from Savannah, but we don’t really know what snow is.

Hi Rebecca!
No snow here in sweltering QLD but it’s not as warm for December as it has been. 😉
Hope all is well.
Cheers

If it gets me outside to shovel I’m more likely to get the vitamin D from whatever sun there is. 😉
