Snowy way

Our snow is almost gone now, but last weekend it snowed for almost two days straight. I still had to walk my four legged friends.

Setting out, Ginger is looking back to make sure that I am serious about this folly.
My brave little Asta led the way, forging a tiny trail in the snow.
Asta found the going much easier in a tire path.
At our driveway the snow was virgin and up above Asta’s legs. She paused.
Can you imagine how daunting this would look from a small dog’s point of view?
Ginger took the lead and forged us a trail home…Sometimes you have to let a friend take the lead.

Bring me a rose in the winter time…

A rose in winter.
Another view.

There is a folk song called “Bring me a rose in the winter time”.

Bring me a rose in the winter time,
When roses are hard to find.
Bring me a rose in the winter time,
I've got roses on my mind.
A rose is sweet most anytime, and yet,
Bring me a rose in the winter time
How easy we forget.

Bring me a smile when I'm far from home,
When it's hard to find.
Bring me a smile when I'm far from home,
I've got smiling on my mind.
A smile is sweet most anytime, and yet,
Bring me a smile when I'm far from home,
How easy we forget.

Other stanzas are:
Bring me a friend when I'm all alone....

Bring me a kiss when my babes are grown....

Bring me a love in my autumn years....

Bring me peace when there's talk of war....

Bring me a rose in the wintertime
When it’s hard to find
Bring me a rose in the wintertime
I’ve got roses on my mind
A rose is sweet
Most any time, and yet
Bring me a rose in the wintertime
It’s so easy to forget

Bring me a friend when I’m far from home
When it’s hard to find
Bring me a friend when I’m far from home
I’ve got friendship on my mind
A friend is sweet … It’s so easy to forget

Bring me a smile when I’m all alone
When it’s hard to find
Bring me a smile when I’m all alone
I’ve got smiles on my mind
A smile is sweet … It’s so easy to forget

Bring me a kiss when my child is grown
When it’s hard to find
Bring me a kiss when my child is grown
I’ve got kisses on my mind
A kiss is sweet … It’s so easy to forget

Bring me love in my autumn years
When it’s hard to find.
Bring me love in my autumn years
I’ve got loving on my mind.
Love is sweet … It’s so easy to forget

Bring me peace when there’s talk of war
When it’s hard to find
Bring me peace when there’s talk of war
Peace is on my mind
Peace is sweet … It’s so easy to forget

Snowmelt

Recently I did a post about last week’s dominant texture: Rain. Today’s texture is melting snow, rain’s more charming (if you can stay inside and be warm unless outside taking pictures) sibling.

The grass poking through and my many bulbs sprouting leaves are hoping we can get back to our regularly scheduled almost-warm but wet almost-spring soon.
