Strength of Winter
Today’s inspiration comes from this photo shared by Stephen Thomas
The Sun’s Splitting the Clouds
Thank you Stephen!
Strength of Winter belongs to the following groups:
"Exceptional Ekphrasis", Feminine Intent (LIMIT TWO IMAGES PER DAY) and The Word TreeThere is a thin line where the earth touches the sky.
A hint at eternity in a moment passes by.
A scene that proves the sum of all color is white.
And the parting of the storm shines with light.
With a deep breath, fear and hope collide.
It is the strength of winter I hold deep inside.

Thanks Adgray, you’re always so kind.
I saw Stephen’s photo this morning; it felt good to stew on it then let the words escape.

Very nice poem, Mardra! Goes well with my photo.
Mardra replied
Thanks Stephen, and thanks for the link.
I felt alot of emotion when I saw your photo –
fear and hope collide was the first thing I thought.
Thank you for sharing your work so I could walk down that path.

Great capture and expansion of the photo. It’s so concise and poignant. Not rambly at all. And how do I know you? (just jealous)
Mardra replied
I felt so much emotion when I looked at the photo, I surprised myself with how short the final effect turned out to be.
I think I’ve been there – my soul or my imagination, which I’m not sure.
