~Not Now~
Winter lies soft
in the dead days of January
with refusal in the wind,
hope covered with snow.

I love your misty, wintry pictures and I usually love winter more than any other season. But this year, I'm really ready for it to be over. Thanks for reminding us with that lovely pictures that Spring is, indeed, just around the corner.
