Grainy, fluffy, icy, crunchy, wet, slushy. Each day a different texture of precipitation. New poem about after our snow day Thursday.
Peaceful eyes
snow falls from skies
flakes scattered
idyllic patterned
window gazing
poetry mazing
shrieks of delight
white mid-calf height
snow day is here
bundle in warm gear
sled down a hill
wee ones will
crystals reach the ground
bliss in deep drifts found.
–Rebecca Cuningham
Have you experienced a snow day? Few companies and no schools in session…
¡Olé! -Rebecca

Love the snow pictures and the poem. Is this snow on the lens or are you inside a window with snow on it?

Great question, Wynne! Very discerning eye. Yes, I took the photo from my parked car. For my intermediate photography, it’s difficult to capture a sense of falling snow. I realized the snowy windshield would help frame it.

Yes, it would. Besides we aren’t used to having snow in the plains

Yes, they are lacey and beautiful. Similar snow in Minnesota, in friend’s posted photos.

That is a lot of snow on the lense as well. Continue to enjoy Rebecca.

thanks, Sandy. It was a shot through my parked car window to show the rapid accumulation of snow. 🙂

I’ve never experienced a snow day and have resisted all invitations. Just looking at your photo makes me shiver with cold.

Cold beauty is not for everyone! I’ll take 0C over 40C almost any day (just not all year,)

Oh my, 48C! I’d rather spend an hour bundled up in triple layers from head to toe in -40C, which I have experienced many times! I do hope you get the chance to see snpw one day!

If only Los Angeles had snow! Here, we only have dry, dry, and dry to describe our weather. Haha, but it’s all good! Wishing you a beautiful winter wonderland of a holiday season, and stay warm!
