gathered from Winter’s first snow
cast over gossamer wings

Firstly, what a gorgeous picture. I bet you took it. Wow. And the poem, a delight to read. Thanks for joining in the fun by sharing your lovely words. Bless you. Xo, selma.
Thank you, Selma! Yes, I photographed the swans at Summer Lake in Central Oregon.
Beautifully written piece, and what a gorgeous picture of the swans.
Thanks so much! 🙂
