WINTER MUSINGS

WINTER MUSINGS

 

Winter Settings

Treeless limbs circle the lake

Far from plush and brilliant as spring

Yet flawless reflections in clear waters

Abstractions of shapes upon my canvas

Branches thrust out

Sorrowful and distant

I savor the setting

 

Winter Moments

Light measures in momenta

Cold, gray morning fog

Whilst sun ascends

Into clear cold afternoons

 

Winter Light

Light is abridged

Fatigues in late afternoon

As I do

I squint to better view my crazed painting

Unbeknown as to its end

Soon, dark hovers

Though night skies illuminate

Stars topple

 

Winter Meditations

Some are despondent

In dusky frigid air

Colorless and ghostly dismal

Yet I reflect on a particular calm, lull

Shadows play on my unfinished painting

Meditations mesmerize
