Out of the bosom of the Air,
Out of the cloud-folds of her garments shaken,
Over the woodlands brown and bare,
Over the harvest-fields forsaken,
Silent, and soft, and slow
Descends the snow.
Snow-Flakes
- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Of course I couldn't let the small amount of snow we had here go un-noticed when everyone has had so much. It was only an inch or so and it's almost gone now, but for a day it was my winter wonderland.
Sorry everyone else is having such a hard time with it. Snuggle up , keep warm, spring is just around the corner.
Well, maybe! :-)
Have a happy and safe weekend.
Sandy :-)

NOOOOO! Not another snow photo! LOL Your beautiful photo is quintessential winter - and how wonderfully the poem fits.
We have not had snow yet but it has been very cold. I am so ready for green grass, birds, flowers, sun, warmth, butterflies and picnics.
Enjoy your weekend also, Sandy - stay warm!

Ah...if only I could believe you, you temptress!
The snow caused chaos in Cardiff on Friday, beacause by midday most offices & busineses had decided to let people leave early...result was gridlock. Stories of people taking an hour to travel about a mile, crazy. Mass panic and if only they had waited.
These photos reminded me of my garden, at times, this winter. Its been slightly warmer these days here, and the garden is perking up!
But I won't count Winter out just yet!
I know sunflower but I cherish my one inch and brief moment of snow lol It has all gone and all is burgeoning green again. :-)
Lol Well, soon be March anyway tc
