Icicles
“Winter giveth … the trees so old, their beards of icicles and snow.” ~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Looking out across the fields
White, blue and brown bands
Sprawling out across the view –
Smooth stripes of color.
One lonely tombstone
“Live so that when the final summons comes you will leave something more behind you than an epitaph on a tombstone or an obituary in a newspaper.” ~Billy Sunday
Wild geese
… Something told the wild geese
It was time to fly,
Summer sun was on their wings,
Winter in their cry.
~Rachel Field
Quiet reflection
“Follow effective action with quiet reflection. From the quiet reflection will come even more effective action.” ~Peter Drucker
Silence
“It was entirely silent and I tried to breathe its peace.” ~Sebastian Faulks
