The snow still on the trees
maybe even more heavily
or heavenly?
the birch and willows
bending deeply
the spruce and pine
straightening
arrows pointing to the sky
yet everyday so different
i look forward to tomorrow
how about today?
today i like to skip
i do not like
to be held to ransom
me making decisions
about my life
i don't know
if i can handle
such responsibility
cut wood
stoke the fire
i'm lucky
i have a saw
and glowing embers

Beautiful.
I know I will come back to read this one... I think I am lucky I have an axe!!
I don't think I can handle the responsibility either Jozien.
Love to you.
Heavy stuff, and very nice too. I love the heavily/heavenly combo.
You end on a good note reminding yourself you have things to feel lucky about. Hope things are going well for you.
Yes Liz, an axe might be better yet for making decicions.
Technobabe i did wake this morning with a heavy heart, and don't feel heavenly yet :) But i am okay. Thanks!
Beautiful imagery. I'm left with the warm feeling of thankfulness in the wood fire. Sometimes the best things in life can't be bought.
Yes Leonie, What is it about wood heat, that it heats our skin, but also our hearts? Not only am i lucky, but i feel blessed again.
held ransom. no. don't like that either...
