2021 Home Photo Challenge 2-21-21

Posted on February 21, 2021 by joseph elon lillie under Photography, stray poetry- challenge poetry

The Home Photo Challenge was fun for me last year. Since I do not think much is going to be changing for me in the way of travel this year, I am going to continue the challenge for myself into 2021. This year I am going to add a little twist. I will give a brief description of each photo I take and write a Haiku to go along with it

My shadow in the snow

The Shadows grow long,

And the light grows deeper still.

We must make ready.

It’s been quite a week at the vicarage. We have restructured the downstairs to accommodate my mother after her injury.

Change often arrives

On the wings of greatest need.

Hardship brings life’s shifts.

The current ice storm has me dreaming of Spring

Dreaming warmer days

In the midst of winter’s reign

Strengthens inner man.

Comet in reverse,

Jet stream lights up the morning.

Saying, “We are here!”

The bird house on the edge of the property awaits its yearly inhabitants.

A bird’s summer home

Awaits the return of song,

Signal of new life.

One of the many icicles edging the roofs of the Vicarage

Inch by tiny inch

Water droplets make their way

Down to water earth.

The bird feeding station in the morning sun

Ready for the birds

To break their fast from darkness?

Gather in the light.

The sun rising over the snow. This isn’t today though. Our skies are lead today. Another 3-5 inches of snow are expected.

I remember sun

It wasn’t so long ago

It shon in the sky.

Our Christmas snowman is buried in winter

So Christmas gives way

To winter buried in snow,

Waiting for release.

The low hanging branch in the middle of the picture actually broke under the weight of the snow.

Pressure from without

Breaks branches, decades of growth.

Nature’s hard fast rule.
