On the Second Day of Christmas


Sunshine
Snow laden yew tree branch,
dancing in the wind,
playing hide and seek
with the morning sun

*

I hope
all of you
who are experiencing
harsh winter conditions
are safe and warm!

Here,
the sun is shining
and light fluffy snowflakes
are dancing from the sky
at the same time -
the miracles of Christmas!

Warm greetings,
Merisi

  1. Beautiful! And I so loved yesterday's little fantasy about the home life of Mr and Mrs Claus - thanks for starting my day with a laugh in this post-Christmas, over-indulged, exhausted blur of a state I find myself in today!

  2. Lovely picture! It was a white Christmas in England, but dreary miserable rain and slushy stuff right now.

  5. Your snow looks much prettier than our snow...no yew trees to speak of here.
    All I can think about is making biscotti (I've never made it before but...)
    The supermarket is not very close by and brown sugar is low..
    :)

  6. Thank you Merisi. We are in the end of a nice white Christmas, only about 3 inches in KY compared to the many inches others received, even places both here and Europe got tons of the white fluff. Nice cushioning for the reindeer on Santi-hoho's sleigh though, at least for the thoughts of the little folk. A man that lived near us, brought over to the USA many years ago our first Yew trees and there is a place nearby in his honor called Yew Dell Gardens~

  9. Thank you all!

    Mary Howell Chromer,
    I did not know about Dell and the gardens named in his honour, thank you! Our house in DC had 2 tall yew trees to the left and right of the entrance, that's why I am so happy I can look out at another one from the apartment here.
