Yesterday's ice storm mostly coated trees and bushes with its glaze. It was beautiful while it lasted. Got lots of pictures ... melted, now: 56 degrees currently. =]

The pulse of life throbs
even though Winter would kill -
renewal of Spring
your photographs are marvelous -- you capture the essence of the moment, the event with a masterful eye, Karla -- and your poem, wonderful, expressive, yet succinctly elegant -- peace, love and great joy to you my dear friend -- JMW
I just installed a warmth-air-pump (beats burning oil and wood polluting agents and keep the cost below one third of before) and for the first time I can do like Liberace...cry all the way to the bank!
Beautiful photo there Karla as I look out our window and see a storm -19 and 20 cm of snow on the way. I will stay in with my hot chocolate, sit in front of the fireplace and watch a movie. Thank you for sharing.
Personally, I'm not looking forward to spring: spring+warmth=severe weather! NOT good in Tornado Alley! Still, all in all, a great write, and I love the piccy! Very well penned/illlustrated; brava, Karla!
