The Soul should stand in Awe ---- Emily Dickinson
Delicate claws, skeletons, spiderwebs, daggers and ripples of ice. I suffered a wet sock and shoe getting this picture -- twice -- but it was worth it. This was the most beautiful, intricate ice I have ever seen, a gift formed by the crazy weather at the end of February. Now we are on the cusp of spring; even the last gritty rinds of snow have been washed away by the rain. The world is dripping, thawing. Things are about to happen.

Vesper! Thanks. An icy photo to parallel your chapbook! I trust you are well and writing.
Gorgeous words and photo. I'm smiling at your wet sock and shoe adventure....I know exactly what you mean!
And it stands in awe, indeed. Happy spring!
P.S. See my post re: On the Cusp ;-)
