quiet music
and
snow
falls
whitecaps roll to shore
winter ending
on a note
of winter
and
it is beautiful

Poems From Oostburg, Wisconsin
Ellen Grace Olinger
So lovely, Ellen. Especially:
‘winter ending
on a note
of winter’
And so true as I look out the window … still snowing, although Spring officially begins tomorrow. Your poetry is stunning! Diane XO
Dear Diane, Thank you.
Beautiful!
Thank you, Mary.
Our newspaper headline reads that winter is hanging on. Different beauty to each season. The bird and buds thought spring would be early. The calendar says two more days… two more days of grey…
Nice little verse. I also like the vintage print.
Dear Jules, Thank you. I look forward to The Dover Design Sampler email each week.
I also loved “winter ending on a note of winter”. It’s the very gentlest reminder to appreciate what “is” while longing for what is yet to come.
Dear Linda, Thank you.
Love those whitecaps rolling to shore; I can see them.
Dear Gallivanta, Thank you.
Oh, Ellen, I love this. I could see and feel the whitecaps rolling to shore…reminding me that winter will end.
Very well done.
Dear Marilyn, Thank you.
Beautiful Ellen. Margie
Thank you, Margie.
Mmm, I love the imagery, Ellen!
Thank you, Caddo. Hope you’re enjoying a lovely Sunday.
Just beautiful. The feeling of Is how I feel when I go on one of 2:am wanders when it is snowing and only I am about.
Thank you and take care. I like the painting you chose for your theme too.
I love the line, “Winter ends on a note of Winter.” so good Ellen. Beautiful words.
Dear Don, Thank you – your comment means a lot.
