Snow Wishes
Intricate
snowflakes fell all night.
Silent treasures,
one by one
stacking upon each other.
Winter wonderland.
~ Jone Rush MacCulloch, 2013
This poem was posted in December. Yesterday, my wish was granted. School let out early, I arrived home safely, and more snow is expected today and tomorrow.
Our Backyard. Hummingbirds can be heard. Am having to bring the feeders in at night. They are hungry!
If you look very close in the middle, you might see Mr. Jay.
Poetry Friday is held at No River Water.
Happy Friday.
Happy Poetry.

Oh, I’d love to trudge through that snow with Mr. Jay. I miss the snow! Lovely images, Jone.
Nice poem, Jone. I’m here at home on a snow day today, too. (Our fourth this year, although we could have had many, many more.) My snow wish is a Go! wish. The snow banks here are huge, and have lost their luster. It’s nice to hear that others enjoy the snow so much, though. Happy Poetry Friday!
Too bad for that hummingbird! Jay can take a bit of snow, but I feel bad for the little ones!
You are good to provide for the winged friends during these snowy months. I love that you refer to the snowflakes as “silent treasures”.
Enjoy your snow!
It’s snow days all over the U.S. this week. I enjoyed mine!
It’s robins that have me worried in New Hampshire. They used to fly south, now they winter here. If they survive the cold this winter it will be a miracle.
