February Star

Prior to March Sunlight streams brilliant Streaked silver veils. Periwinkles bloom in amber dew; Glossy azure blossoms Rusty vermilion. 2/20/2017

This was beautiful, perhaps February is the theme but this sounds like the perfect spring day to me.

Thank you, Chris. It was a surreal experience full of beauty and mystery to see. It's like 80 degrees here right now and feels like spring

Lots of beauty in this one, Phillip. Do the periwinkles bloom already where you are? It has been a strange winter here, so I would not be surprised.

Thank you, Agnes! I believe the periwinkles have a bit longer to wait here in Houston but I could be wrong. I wrote this this morning when i went outside and the sky was like orangeish red instead of blue. It was cool but kinda spooky too
