WINTER OF LIFE
In the winter of my life
Let me be as this evergreen
Sturdy in conviction
My face looking upwards
With arms reaching out
Embracing life
Offering support
To any and all who come near.
Passing on lessons learned
To future generations.
Photos taken of trees on my street after a winter storm in February, 2010.
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
How wonderfully said Francine!
Beautiful shots too!
