This poem, Trudi, captures perfectly what it feels like to be alive and aware in a temporary wonderland created by frost. Magical.

You beautifully capture that liminal space, that crack being fought over, between winter and spring, Trudi!

Thank you, Lori-Ann! It feels liminal right now. I also don’t know which coat to wear!

Trudi, I know how you feel. It was beautiful for a few days, no heat needed and last night got a bit cool. My niece calls the month of March bi-polar, and I said hey, I was born in March😂

I'm thinking, contemplating, pondering.

May take a day or so.

I absolutely love the line

"Cobwebs gleaming with diamond dew"

Can picture it crystal clear.

As always you bring joy to my morning wake.

Lovely

Thankyou.

It does bleed away too quickly, but it's glorious while it lasts! 💞
