A look of the landscape of Tranquil Acres of Alexandria
An interim moment of frosted splendor
Only to make the heart grow tender

You rain down upon the limbs
Of forested trees and shrubs
Of forested trees and shrubs
Missiles slice through frosty air
Piercing all found down below
Piercing all found down below
Temperatures hover in the teens
A chilling glimmering glow
Reigning over all the world
Nature created this icy show











I enjoyed all your outdor scenes. You put just the right touch on them with you thoughts and words.

Thank you all.. good thing I got those pictures yesterday because today it's simply dangerous to walk out in my landscape. Large limbs down all over and ice crashing to the ground.. I imagine it will be beautiful if the sun ever finds its way back to my part of the world..
ReplyDeleteWhat great pictures!!! Love them. Following now from a Wed. blog hop.

WOW - If only I could take photos half as beautiful...
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. It reminded me that winter CAN be a good thing. :D
Ah yes... sometimes winter can produce such beautiful artwork, and then ... there are days like today when my beautiful landscape looks like carnage.. ;0( Trees down, limbs hanging, brush all over the place. At this rate I'll be cleaning up my yard until next Winter. I've never, EVER seen an ice storm like this! The poor trees are bending more and more. Ice and falling all over the place in huge chunks. You can't even go outside as it's too dangerous. I just hope my little cabin in the woods survives the day. I lost power for five hours this morning and just now got back up. Trees are coming down faster than you can say, "STOP!" now power lines are going on fire outside my house.. It's a war zone! AND I DO NOT LIKE IT!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous...but Brrr!
ReplyDeleteYou're not kidding Linda...
ReplyDeleteI really like the contrast in the "Fire and Ice" pic..great shot!
