After The Storms

The pale white skies, with a tint of setting sunlight, Spread across the horizon beyond the hill Gray bark, tall pines and the oak stood proud Holding their proof of spectacular seasons passed Wind blown snow hug the tree trunks like marshmallows Decorative slopes, frozen in collective time Winter has a way of saying, everything will be alright As it leaves behind these calm scenes that resonate Always showing quiet peace, in drifts after the storms Heidi Sands 1/18/24 (C)opyright

When the ferocious storm abates everything becomes peaceful and still. It's only then you feel at peace with the world. Enjoy your weekend. Tom

Heidi, you capture the serene aftermath with poetic grace. The pale skies, proud trees, and snow-draped landscapes unfold a tale of resilience. Winter's whisper reassures that everything will be alright, leaving behind scenes of quiet peace in the drifts after the storms. I really enjoyed. - Blessing, Daniel
