Black & White Wednesday ~ Simply Divine

"Nature is full of genius,

full of the divinity;

so that not a snowflake

escapes its fashioning hand."

Henry David Thoreau

Let it snow!

Bring on the quiet cocoon.

I love the staying in, the laying low...

the slowing down.

I love each frozen, crystallized creation.

I love those first moments,

before the roads are plowed,

before the flakes stop falling...

when the ground is soft

and the air seems pure.
I want to learn the stillness.
The peace.

I will fall asleep tonight in our world

and wake up tomorrow

in a heavenly place.
