Winter swooped in, overnight,
our world, covered in snow.
Indeed, an alluring sight,
sunlit flowers all aglow.

Poetry:~Leaves fall, life surrenders, motion slows~
In the distance, to the West,
Blue skies highlight icy crystals,
Glistening on mountain peaks;
Leaves fall, life surrenders, motion slows.
Outside my window, not quite winter,
Dramatic changes revealed,
Pleasing aspects of autumn gone;
Leaves fall, life surrenders, motion slows.
From the mountain, Sparrows seek food,
Dark-eyed Juncos, need shelter,
Western Scrub Jay, caches peanuts;
Leaves fall, life surrenders, motion slows.
In the distance, to the West,
Leaves fall, life surrenders, motion slows.
“I’am going to miss you, my Scrub!”
White-crowned Sparrows and Dark-eyed Juncos showed up, at my house, a couple of days ago – winter is on its way!
Photos taken today, in my backyard!

I went back to my archives, for these photos, of the Northern Cardinal. While camping at Stephen B. Austin State Park near Katy, Texas, earlier this year, we were entertained watching them swing on these vines. I can’t wait to see them again along our route heading south.
