today i offer a change of scenery...

i have been like a woman obsessed.
obsessed by snow
ice
shades of blue and gray...
a constant backdrop of white.

outside my window,
the birch tree looks even more beautiful
than yesterday,
still wearing white on white
but with a blush,
a tinge of early morning pink.

i can't get out fast enough,
feet scrunched into my eight year old son's sneakers,
candy cane colored gloves
grasping the camera...

a woman obsessed
might be
an understatement.
