Time

Already into February! 

And yet in some respects, I am not too sorry.

Winter certainly does feel like a time,

 to hibernate in the comfort of your home!

It's so good to see the morning & evening light increasing,

 as I dislike going to work in the dark

 & returning in the dark.

A pet hate is also having to de-ice the car early in the morning.

causing the fingers to go numb,

 regardless if you're wearing the thickess of gloves.

But, dispite these aggravations,

I do believe in the quotation that my daughter has,

 displayed on a wooden plaque.

A Happy Weekend to You All!

Compare....

Winter certainly not all dull grey horrible days!

As I approached my front door,

I was reminded that the daylight is starting to draw out,

& therefore,

 fortunate enough,

 to witness the last of the sun's rays settling,

  before the night sets in.

The colours of the late afternoon hours,

 mirrored the colours of the indoor growing hyacinths

With the close-ups of the plants,

it's certainly makes one aware,

 to appreciate the colours,

 represented again towards the end of the day!
