A bright winter sun
lights up the table
laid for Thanksgiving dinner
It had snowed all night,
blanketing the whole city
A few golden leaves
still holding on,
the fence
lends itself as espalier
to a parade of perennials
in early winter finery
Inside,
cranberry compote
takes center stage

A beautiful snow!
ReplyDeleteVicki,
ReplyDeleteit is snowing, again!
The overnight forecast for Vienna is for a foot of snow.
It feels a lot like Christmas. ;-)
You live with beauty, Merisi.
ReplyDeleteAnd lovely food and crisp white linen and fine architecture and glamourous women, and colour that glows.
Another foot of snow? Oh my!
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to say how much I liked those lingering golden leaves amidst the initial 2010 snowfall. And the cranberries are gems in that compote.
Stay warm and cosy indoors. xo
I'm glad you are getting pictures of snow and we get to look at them. :)
ReplyDeleteYour photos make me almost wish for snow here. They are stunning (love the espaliere). Thank you.
ReplyDeleteGood morning!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind comments,
I always read them with pleasure and a feeling
of gratitude.
It has indeed snowed all night,
but temperatures are climbing and it looks as if all this white beauty is a precarious one, in danger of melting before noon comes around.
A wonderful week to all of you,
Merisi
Thank you for sharing your fleeting snow as it will be a month or so before I will hope to see some in Maine. Thank you also for the kind thoughts :)
