Image result for pictures of trees being whipped by spring winds

Icy northwesterly winds whip Like a buggy whip cracks, Hurrying the horses along Dragging winter on its back. Green leaves battered to the brown earth Instant early death befalls. Tender young fruit most likely gone Spring unsettled appalls. Unfinished

Engrossing images with the horse and buggy lines, Sara. Curious where this continues when you finish it. Was that your own picture? We once had a storm, here in Idaho, that made a mailbox (post and all) tilt at 45 degrees! It made for an amusing picture.
