“Winter was beautiful… – almost intolerably beautiful… Lovely ferns of ice all over the windows…Every hour brought a new revelation and wonder.”
― L.M. Montgomery
Haiku inspired by the above quote:
winter’s mirage
frost-covered branches bloom
snowflake bouquets
A beautiful quote, so vivid in its description.

Out of this world
A snowflake bouquet
It can’t be packaged or couriered
One just have to be present
To breathe in its wonder and beauty
I can feel that intolerably beautiful of Montgomery
Those ice- packed windows still remain in memory
A cringing beautiful in those circumstance

Your marvelous words are a delight to read. So happy you found the charm of the “bouquets”.
L.M. Montgomery can paint imagery with so delicate a pen that imagery becomes ink.
Happy Monday.

I wish we had more beautiful winter here in Vancouver rather than it just being gloomy and wet.

Oh sorry about that. It does get rainy too there in the Winter, instead of snow.

I guess the good thing is that it makes me appreciate the beautiful snowy days when we do get them.

Yes indeed. And perhaps the rain is what makes your area so beautiful in the first place. Amen.
