Frozen In Time

Casting a glistening ray across glossy ice Midnight sun above the frozen Arctic, Shimmering stars adding a cosmic spice Casting a glistening ray across glossy ice, Two parka-clad lovers, a touch of nice, Sharing soft, cooing love songs cathartic Casting a glistening ray across glossy ice Midnight sun above the frozen Arctic.

There is a surreal magicalness about this one.

Love the imagery in this one Milton, a friend in Norway once went north to witness the midnight sun, she sent me a photo that looked liked 12 noon but it was midnight, hard to believe its possible. Tom

Yes. I've never had the privilege of going to that part of the world, but those who have shared their experiences tell me it's incredible. Thanks for your comment, Tom.
