weight of cold
stark bare-bones
shroud of frigid
cocoons the forest
plummeting temperatures
gusting winds
frenzy and stillness
winter's tug of war

I'm mindful of the cold in Breckenridge, CO. Throughout the month of January, I join with others around the world to write small stones for the Mindful Writing Challenge
Beautiful pictures. It is like a dream for me.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos, Barb! We got a foot of snow here in the foot hills -- only 2 inches were predicted. I do enjoy the "dry" cold of Colorado, however --so different from what I experiences in the east in NY.
ReplyDeleteWow - how very gorgeous! Please send some of that snow to us in Sweden...
ReplyDeleteWow! these images are beautiful! A real contrast to the high summer heat-wave we have been experiencing in Queensland, Australia.
ReplyDeleteI am feeling a chill by looking at the amount of snow in your post, Barb. I think I would freeze in such a weather. Love your pictures, love the verse complementing the pictures: they take me to your world!
ReplyDeleteI agree - from the photos and your poetry it looks like Camelot. Camelot! I still am in love with the idea of Camelot.
ReplyDeleteThe snow is so beautiful...but the temperature sure is frigid!
ReplyDeleteSooo beautiful snowscapes. Animals must have been sleeping in peace under the deep snow blanket.
ReplyDeleteit's just gorgeous, if not dangerous.
ReplyDeletebeautiful photos. it has been years since I was in breckenridge. My aunt leaved in Ft Collins and every summer in the 80's we tented and hiked thru out the rockies. it was very good memories.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness does that look oh so heavy and beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThe trees adorned with snow are so beautiful!! A true winter wonderland. Be safe!
ReplyDeleteAll the trees are dressed in white. Sometimes the beauty needs to be appreciated from indoors when the temperatures plummet. We are fortunate to live in a place where our homes can provide warmth.
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful. I can hear the quiet and wish I were there.
ReplyDelete"Winter's tug of war" is the perfect wording to describe winter in the mountains.
ReplyDeleteI love your cocoon forest, it is really beautiful!! Stay safe & warm!!
ReplyDeleteIt is beautiful .... one would have to be mindful to go outside in that weather.
ReplyDeleteThat second shot is absolutely remarkable - I love the symmetry, and the white white whiteness - it literally gives me chills -
ReplyDeletein a good way!
