December's End. Forecast for Snow.
"Some people love waking to the sight of new snow. Fallen snow is fine, but I like the sight of it falling, fine as dust or so fat you can hear it land against the kitchen window. I like the tunnel of dry snow you drive through at night, the headlights blanking out a few yards ahead, and the feeling that you're driving into some abysmal vacuum. I like the ground-blizzards and the snow that slithers down the road ahead of you. What I like is the visual impairment snow brings with it, the way it obscures some things and defines others, like the wind." - ---Verlyn Klinkenborg from The Rural Life
Putting aside all the horrid things happening around the world, thank you for this image. I like that the image above them is of violence; it relays hope that we will remember, will get better, will ...wear suits...and play cards?
ReplyDeleteI don't know what this means, but the picture makes me happy, and since Mrs Shambles put the kabash on the framed "A Friend in Need" dogs playing poker picture I had, it makes me nostalgic.
Thank you.
