Black Bones




Black Bones
 
December  sun
sets early
behind solid
black bones
of old tree.
 
Clearing skies
and calming winds
allow cold air mass
to settle fast
upon open field.
 
Skeleton of
red oak
ready
to survive
another winter.

    Nice photo "Father Nature". That's my tree, and my cornfield. Thanks for making it famous.

    Thanks for you kind and generous remarks.

    You know I love those winter tree skeletons; enhanced by a cold, gold sunset.
