Ice Coats the Pond

12/16/2023, red L, 10:00-12:00

Cool, damp, grey morning
Thin layer of ice coats the pond
Golden-crowned Kinglets so very busy
Oranges and peaches stand out amidst the greys
Sun attempts to burn through misty cloud cover
Vines and limbs seek each other out, entangle
Red always makes itself known
Ah, the gorgeous sweet scent of the prairie
Dry grasses speak through crackles
