Poem Artwork


Winter skidded in
on the tails of Jack
Frost's white tuxedo
coat, sensible boots -

real fashion plate he
is ... and then there's me,
counting the seasons
before they arrive -
a Spring disaster!

Reminds me-- I used to grab my bro's tails and skate around on the frozen remains of the creek I once drowned in...

Not a big sin Karla, I've been doing it for some time, started looking at Garden Catalogues, though I know spring is three month away, the only thing that keeps me sane, I do it every year, and guess what it jus started blowing like crazy. YOurs in white, Bless you! Jasmin Horst

While anticapating spring we dive head first into the wardrobe and look good at the colors of yesteryear. Do we get a favorite color this year or do we regale in the finery of our past. decisions decisions.

Love and blessings!

hahaha good stuff Karla!I'm freezing too, in what used to be sunny california. These past weeks have brought me back East again where I used to complain of dark dreary weather all winter.HA! I'm glad it is just an anomaly(I hope) Will soon be hoping the sun hides behind a cloud for awhile to get relief, how fickle we are, just like the weather;-) lol

Love,
