This is a winter’s tail
(Excuse the pun!)
A tale of how snow decorates
And transforms.
How the bare bones of winter
Have their own stark beauty.
The woods have a deep magic —
Although it helps to have a sweet Rottweiler puppy in the picture too!
And here, a lone wooden cottage
Seems to be bathing in snow kisses.
There’s more s-now business like snow business over at: Our World Tuesday.
Great attention to de tail (pun very much intended) 🙂
I love the Narnia-like winter landscape and mourn its absence this year. You’ve created poetry yet again with your photos.

I mourn the absence of snow too. Luckily, it snowed heavily a couple of times and I managed to get out with the cam.
