February Continues...

 

What can I say? The last full week of February opens cold.

Remember this? It's Pakim Pond in Brendan T. Byrne State Forest in south Jersey last autumn. Click to enlarge.

It looks like this now. I am looking forward to adding a spring shot of the location to the series. Meanwhile, here is the February stanza from A Year's Windfalls, a poem by Christina Georgina Rossetti 

"On the wind in February

Snowflakes float still, 

Half inclined to turn to rain, 

Nipping, dripping, chill. 

Then the thaws swell the streams, 

And swollen rivers swell the sea. -- 

If the winter ever ends

How pleasant it will be."
