My contemplation
Of all life’s impermanence
Stars subtle decay

Defending her pink blossom
Autumn passes by

That Wintry Minx
as mercury dives
a wintry mix freezes
life into sculpture
the only up side
to burst pipes spewing water
ice castles forming
sounds of a faucet
above the icy silence
drip
drip
drip
drip
drip
In response to Patrick Jennings’ Pic and a Word Challenge #122: Weather and the Weekly Photo Challenge: Silence
Cozy
Grey
freezing rain
Inside nicely cozy
Safe from winter’s constant
Howling

All That Glitters
Steadfast
The glow of life as it recedes
Deep into the dormant stage
Gathering energy, steadfastly waiting
For the first hint of spring’s warmth
To release the sleeping beauty within
And begin the life cycle anew
In response to Patrick Jennings Pic and a word Challenge #109: Steadfast, The Weekly Photo Challenge: Glow and The Daily Post: Release
Mortality
In the night sky
Blink of an eye
A life passes by
Burning brightly with abandon
In response to Patrick Jennings Pic and a Word Challenge #100: Mortality and the Weekly Photo Challenge: Ooh, Shiny!
