IN the Twilight


The snow falls as if it has a purpose a rush a reason to come and cover the wet ground as each flake falls and covers the mud and the puddles the temperatures drop as if to tell us winter has not yet decided to leave. The trees become weighted with the heavy flakes and bend over to touch the frosty ground that is now covered with inches of snow. The day continues to the High winds and the snow swiftly floating across the ground to cause a mist of smoke like snow drifting across the fields.
As the light is taken over by the darkness, The clouds in the sky have the highlight of a magical mist. The colors of the sun reflect through the snow clouds giving pinks purples and blues. The sight of Stars in between the clouds as they drift through the sky as if they where in a race to go no where. The Roads shine from the black ice as the temperature continues to drop to 16 degrees. The wind blows across the bare skin of your face or hands to cause your skin to hurt with pain. The snow blows from the tree tops hitting you like needles poking your every pore.
Walking through the pasture feeling the wind and the snow the smell of locals burning there woods stoves and the snow glistening from the least little of light. The stars shine my way to the barn to throw Hay and check water. The horses tucked in there fluffy bedding closed up tight to keep the winds and snow from blowing in as they wait patiently for their hay. They give the sound of soft knickers to announce my walking into their space. Happy to see me and greet me with happy eyes and ears.
The sights the sounds! Winter days the Clean white palate of Gods Love shows through one single day and continues in the twilight of the evening to the darkest moment of the night.
Take life embrace every moment and Do not allow one moment to pass by with regret of not enjoying the moment of the day.

  1. Julie, not only do you have a way with the camera, but a way with words... they are so beautiful and uplifting, no matter what is going on in your world.

    You're a beautiful woman and that obviously starts from the inside.

    Hugs, Mary
