Description
What better witness than this evening snow,
its steady blind quiet, its eventual
completeness, a talc smoothing every surface
through the lumen tricks of ice.
No one who comes here hastens to leave,
though the mineral winter makes a dull
math of cold inside the bones, a numbness
thinning into each fingertip and eye.
Faint injury traveling toward earth
in shifting silence, a softness in the weather
passing through us, dark moods of snows �
a sense of peace so deep we extend out
into the blackness of our lives, dread and failure,
and feel no hint of terror, only the premonition
of drift-design, the stars behind the snow
burning in ancient immanence over the field.
What lights a world gone blank with despair?
You were here once; you will be here again.

Beautiful Jenny and I really liked the poem in the description, it leads me to more philosophical thoughts, while viewing an already peaceful, thoughtful scene :)

This is stunning, Jenny. I can almost hear the quiet. I really do like the subtle touch of color in the field. f/v

All the components of this image work perfectly to create a mood. I most enjoy how the trees create different virtual textures over items in the background. My POD for 1/28 v/f.
