A paste of sparkling, sticky snow clings to the leafless trees. The sky is cloudy blue and cold. My eyes look on all these.
This all reflects the mystery that we are here to see.
That’s when the prophet stopped to praise with thankfulness and we. Well, we as well began to praise with thanks for all we see.

Denise offers the prompt word “paste” to be used in this week’s Six Sentence Stories. Reformatting this into verses, I posted it on Poet’s Corner.

There is something marvelous about a good snow! Particularly if you have plenty of food and do not need to get out. 😁
Blessings.

A lot of contrast in this picture. Like the mystery we see against all we do not see. Beautiful! We still have little snowfall to speak of. Mostly rain. Quite a strange year but I am still glad for bare ground.

We tender southern creatures are most thankful when snow does not fall, it’s just not what we are accustomed to.

No, that was in Illinois a few years ago. I figured others probably had a lot of snow and so I recalled my memories of it. Some pleasant; all worth praise and thanksgiving. Thank you, Jim!

Wonders all around us, Frank… if only we pause for awhile and marvel.

Nice 6! As I am reading this, I am waiting to see if the winter storm warning is going to be fruitful or not. It’s not looking good, as not a flake has fallen, and I could REALLY REALLY use a snow day tomorrow!
