Captivating Beauty

Ribbon layers of peach, tangerine, yellow and violet colored streamers of varied dimensions overlap While bridging evening sky the last of the sun's rays ignite different hues overwhelming ones sense of sight As its impression is reflected off mirrored surface of the lake Snow crystals hug lakes shores stopping any water from escaping its banks In its background towering trees minus all leaves just sticks for limbs poke out the tip top a bit bushy from multitude of twigs Even their image is echoed off slick glass like water Sky softens as it kneels touching the horizon where they seem to merge together with a dark barrier of dirt All melts into others or reflected off watery mirror With snow bringing it all together Yet the sky gives false hope of warmths welcoming glow to this captivating panoramic backdrop

Beautiful imagery!! It was painted as if I was there along with you...there’s nothing like letting your mind free in a calm place outdoors next to a body of water.
