Nice one! you've been tagged over my place if you care to. :D
Perfection! Your words echo the beauty in the grey winter clothing and the heart beating steady!
These last two poems are so bittersweet--if the photo images were not so harmonious, I would worry about you!
May your life be filled with peace and love...as much as you give to others, which is neverending...
I love any plant, shrub or tree with red berries, especially if they stay on through winter. This is lovely.
Exactly how I was feeling today. Your photo reminds me what a miracle red can be.
