Today... Winter comes

Summer is over, fall leaves have swept down streets.One can now breathe In the brisk wintry air. Frost has covered windshields. The light comes over the hills filtering through heavy clouds. Vegetable patches are snug in their beds with a light mulch blanket covering for all. The wonderful doodads, thingamajigs and oh my goodies are safely stashed away in nooks and crannies about the sheds.

Now What?

    What you wrote is lovely! Is this yours? Are you a writer? A poet?

    This interpretation is beautiful!

    May I copy this? I love it!

    kairethebloomingfool, love your name by the way, that was beautiful.
    I think it was Fall here today. Grey skies, sprinkles, under 80 degrees. I was a happy person, LOL. Hopefully the 90s are gone till next May now.
    We only have two seasons in Phoenix. "Nice" and "Hotter than you-know-where".

    Golden leaves crunch under foot
    as the sun dips in the sky.
    The bulbs you planted taking root
    as tiny snowflakes start to fly.

    Precious garden junk and tipsy pots
    are stored safely from the cold.
    Scarves and hats are donned by tots
    along with mittens bright and bold.

    As the garden goes dormant as it waits
    for Old Man Winter to have his day,
    the gardener sits and patiently rates,
    which new seeds to plant in May.

    Snuggly slippers quickly replace
    rubber clogs that were worn daily.
    While hot chocolate soon takes the place
    of cold lemonade once sipped so gaily.

    Soon the ground will be blanketed with snow
    and snowmen will dot the scene.
    No more worries about a lawn to mow,
    slugs to slay or aphids to intervene.

    But my dear friend, you certainly must agree
    it's because of all that freezing cold winter surely brings
    that makes the gardener's heart quickly fill with glee
    at the sight of a sweet white snowdrop sprouting up in spring.

    I take full credit for my goofy little poem. lol! I'd love to read how one can add gifs to their posts too!

    Luna that poem is gorgeous. You certainly have a way with words that paint pictures.

    I insert things like that drawing by saving the picture in a photobucket album, then I can just copy the link and insert here like we do photos on the 'other side'.


    hugs, Karen

    I am totally impressed with the way you are able to express yourself so eloquently with your writing, Luna. It is really lovely!

    Yep, I use PhotoBucket for my pics too. I have really extensive clipart and photo files on CDs that I have made and access whenever I need something. When I see something I like, in an email or whatever, I copy it to my own file for possible future use. I edit a lot of things too. I also make my own greeting cards. My grandkids get a real kick out of getting birthday cards with pictures of themselves, taken a few years back, on them. Usually funny pictures!
    It's time consuming...but pays off big time when I see the expressions on their faces when they see their special cards! After the holidays, I should post a pic of the project I'm working on for my oldest granddaughter's Christmas present. I love things that have "meaning"!

    Thanks for the kind compliments and the tip on inserting gifs!

    Thank you guys.
    I did write it myself... to my own suprise LOL!

    Just was a passing thought that more words kept coming.

    You may use it if you like.

    Thank you as well for your kind words friends.

    May everyone have a Wonderful Thanksgiving!
