pear tree in december
















the tender white blossoms
have fluttered away
like so many snowflakes

the leaves fallen
too

but look at her!

look at her
splendor



*"Of winter's lifeless world each tree
   Now seems a perfect part
   Yet each one holds summer's secret
   Deep down within its heart."
             ~Charles D. Stater


** We have lived on our property for almost 20 years and i think it safe to say, that it wasn't until yesterday, that i really noticed the beauty of the "pear trees in december."
