Snow

Getting back from Vermont there were so many things to do, and tried as I might to create something for my post today, my To Do List was dancing in my head. We haven't had any snow just yet, and I know it will be here soon. So, I am posting something I wrote last year all about glorious snow.





How do you capture a SNOWFLAKE...





One that is big enough for you to see it’s magical detail?

You can memorize it as you admire the flakes floating down within nature’s snow globe,



You can try to catch it on your mitten,
You can catch it in your bare hand...before it melts,
Or you can capture it on your doggie who is out for a play,




You can catch it on your tongue before it falls to the ground,
Or make a snowball and take a bite of it's wonder,



You can build a snowman and watch the snowflakes twinkle in the moonlight,
You can capture it on your shovel, until you have about a thousand collected in a pile,

Or you can catch it on your camera lens to save forever,




You can make a snow fort and capture them in nice blocks of snow,
Or lie down next to your doggie and children and share the adventure of making snow angels,




When all the snowmen have melted and the buds are on the trees,
And my garden will begin to bloom,
You will probably hear me say,
“Oh, I miss the snow."



But I have a secret place to reflect on flickr
So when I am missing winter. I can visit my snowflakes...
Or on everybody's photostream collected in nice groups,
And on my flickr set named SNOW!



So when other seasons are being celebrated or if your weather doesn't permit,
Simply visit my photos and you will see New England's dream and the answer to...
How to capture a SNOWFLAKE.



Last year one one Saturday morning we awoke to the most magical snowfall. The kind that celebrate great BIG snowflakes that put icing on all the trees and make you feel like you are in the center of a snow globe.




Even little cocoa was mystified by it all. The heart shaped smoodges were left by Mr. Plow man, who Cocoa hearts, so maybe she put them there. I only know that when I was cropping this photo, I couldn't help but notice the heart. Isn't that just like little Miss Cocoa, she always celebrates life's little magic!



The song for this post is It's Christmas.
