maple tree in white
closely wrapped in winter’s shroud
crystalline blanket
“I wonder if the snow loves the trees and fields, that it kisses them so gently? And then it covers them up snug, you know, with a white quilt; and perhaps it says, “Go to sleep, darlings, till the summer comes again.”
Lewis Caroll
Carpe Diem #1038 snow

Lovely poem.
It’s strange to think of such cold in August.

It always seems so far away, and before you know it, it’s here.
