Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us, or we find it not. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson, American essayist, philosopher, poet

It’s
A nice
Surprise when
You’re shoveling
Snow outside, look up,
And see a tree outlined
With frosting on its branches.
Only Mother Nature can make
Such a beautiful, decorated
Work of art from a leafless maple tree.

Note: Poetry form is Etheree. Snow was from December (it’s in the 50s this week!)
