The First of a New Year: My Best


I really didn't have a photo I thought of as my best.
This photo was taken last month, on a cold day.
There were dead hosta, lying gold and 
translucent in their beds. 
Then I turned to see one bright rose,
shining brightly as the late afternoon sun 
heated the limestone block, 
and chill breezes froze everything 
else to the ground.

Well, 22bb etc., I nearly forgot to post the image. I really didn't have a thing I much liked. So glad to know that you are still lookin' in. Happy New Year to you and hope that it brings you good times and joy.
