cold sunset -
the crocus shuts
its blossoms
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
They are out since two days, even if it gets minus four centigrade in the morning.

And count each separate day
As a separate life.

stray dogs
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
winter morning -
three stray dogs
at the post box
Our post box is at the end of the road up on the mountain.
These poor creatures were looking quite out of place and seemd so afraid of humans, they ran away as soon as I started to "talk" to them.

little icicles
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
midday sunshine -
the icicles fall
with a PING
We are in another cold wave,
minus 4 centigrade this morning.
The snow dripps slowly from the roof, forming little icicles of about 5 cm length on each indenture of the tin. They hang in there like the teeth of a saw.
When I was out for a moment, I heared a PING of something hitting metal, one more PING ...
The icicles fell one by one and hit the metal grit of the water drainage,
a natural organ playing the PINGS ...

QUOTE ... what if ...
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
One way to open your eyes is to ask yourself,
"What if I had never seen this before?
What if I knew i would never see it again?"
Rachel Carson
This is a good advise
to ask yourself
before writing a haiku !

snow sky snow moon

snow -
there is blue in the sky
and there is gray
caught in the white of a snow moon
caught in the night of a snow moon

Full Moon on January 10, 2009
not set
in her ways--
snow moon
George
If skies are clear Saturday, go out at sunset and look for the giant moon rising in the east. It will be the biggest and brightest one of 2009, sure to wow even seasoned observers.
the orbit is not a perfect circle. One portion is about 31,000 miles (50,000 km) closer to our planet than the farthest part, so the moon's apparent size in the sky changes. Saturday night (Jan. 10) the moon will be at perigee, the closest point to us on this orbit.
It will appear about 14 percent bigger in our sky and 30 percent brighter than some other full moons during 2009, according to NASA. (A similar setup occurred in December, making that month's full moon the largest of 2008.)

I am NOW
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
I was regretting the past and fearing the future.
Suddenly God was speaking. "My name is 'I Am.'"
I waited. God continued.
"When you live in the past,
with its mistakes and regrets,
it is hard. I am not there. My name is not 'I was.'
"When you live in the future,
with its problems and fears,
it is hard. I am not there. My name is not 'I will be.'
"When you live in this moment, it is not hard.
I am here.
My name is 'I Am.'"
