Surely You Jest

Snowstorm, April 2
weathervane horse prances north
robins are unimpressed

I know the picture doesn’t exactly match the words, but it’s the best picture of the wild, windy snowstorm.  This is linked to the Imaginary Garden, where Karin asked us to include something about horses, and Prompt Nights, where Saana gave us the topic “Surely you jest.”

 

 

On Storms and Love

We can’t always choose
spring rains quench, revive or drown
but drought is lifeless.
Take your chances with the sky
leave your umbrella behind.
