DC: The Unexpected

the unexpected:

against our gray day
earth cloaked in old snow
starting to tarnish with age 

a new joyous song filling the air

i spied RED
unexpected in our usual wintry mix
of birds

the pine grosbeak

ink stage

before painting:

New Year's Blessings, DC: time

on the threshold
a moment in time

between two years

with heartfelt care

a wish:

may blessings grace your days and nights

may dreams  be met to your delight

may health and perfect wealth be yours

may hearts hold peace and joy

with sacred love 

wishing you and our world

a beautiful 2015

Eric's DC challenge is time
so perfect at turning of a year
when we are aware of the passing of time
an entire year
and considering our next year
Thank you for hosting Eric!
