Delicate Dreams


The bare branches are painted with a dusting of snow
Delicate dreams rest in the distance to be seen
The slightest breeze can blow them away
It's time to capture a photo with confidence
To hold a memory of what can be created
In the cold, no sun shining,  still pure and beautiful
Dreams may be delicate , but not always bare
Reach for what you want while you can, it's there!
