Winter in Oregon
Its snowing again
Winter’s presence now known
All the ground is white
Winter makes news again
Record snow levels
Are set across our state
Cold temperatures
Turn Oregon rains icy
We try to stay warm inside

December 21st
None other can claim

Fall’s Final Day
Winter’s Eve
Rains gently falling
Removing
Restoring
Green carpet appears again
White blanket melts

Animal Tracks
Morning light reveals
A nightime visitor
Footprints in the snow
Haiku
I wasn’t quite sure just who this visitor was so I checked online and matched the tracks to a Squirrrel. Quite interesting that they have 4 font toes and 5 back toes.
Squirrel Footprint Art on Pinterest maybe I will get creative and give that a try! 😊
Fall Blizzard
Weather frightful
Not a pretty sight
Snow falling
Unexpected
People trapped in traffic
And kids stuck at school
Shadorma
Winter has returned with a vengeance here in the Pacific Northwest. Very unusual weather for us in the Willamette Valley.
Fall’s Reminder Notice
Cold air pushed out
Melting snow turns to puddles
Fall tells Winter “Leave!”
Issues a reminder notice
“Winter begins December 21st”

Stone Cold
Bitter cold wind blows
Snow covers frozen tundra
Winter comes early

First Snow
December’s snowfall
Picture perfect postcard
God sent me today
Flurry of tiny miracles
Beautiful to gaze at

Mr. Fox
Oh my Mr Fox, why are you there,
Smiling at me without care?
Is it not a momentous offence
For you to be outside that fence?
Flashing that silly,sly stare!
Limerick
I wrote this silly rhyme to go with this image of a little fox that I and my grand-daughter drew. I was trying to learn to draw a fox and she was helping me. I thought he turned out cute so I saved him and added him into my Christmas Village display. 😊
