Silence Fell ~

"Go to the winter woods:

 listen there, look, watch,

 and

 'the dead months'

 will give you a subtler secret

 than any you have yet found

 in the forest.”

Fiona Macleod

Fifteen inches of new snow

almost cover the

wheels leaning against

the tree trunks.

It's a wonder through the windows.

The Journal ~

time comes softly

daily waiting to be opened

then disappears

perhaps with urgency

perhaps an ebbing

“Everything changed

 the day she figured out

 there was exactly enough time

 for the important things in her life.”

So teach us to number our days,

 that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.

Psalm 90:12
