Sight and Sound of Spring

Memories of my childhood flood back each spring.
Puddles of melted snow freeze overnight in designs of white.

On the way to school, I couldn’t resist the temptation
to crunch through every icy crust.
The hollow shattering was a sound and sign of spring.

Iced Birch


Branches of the birch, here wrapped in ice,
appear white against the grey of the evening sky.

Glazed Over

The combination of rain and freezing temperatures
dramatically coats everything!

More images to come….
