Fantasy
Over the Hill and Far Away or so it seems from my perspective. The tree stoops, its leaves leisurely float soundlessly to the snow covered ground, like angels’ tears. Five bright blue horses calmly amble among the branches, several bending to nibble the sweet grass, while others stand in place, hushed, as if waiting for the artist to paint their portrait. The contrast and allure: blue animals, white snow and green plant, together with the golden and cadmium red foliage, this idyllic scene that I gaze upon, wounds my soul. I gravitate toward the vision. The image must be real. Dreams are never this breath taking.

Hey nice to see you not on a sunday !
Hmmm – strangely I think dreams are often more breath taking than most of reality.
🙂
Quite brilliant … I love the line **together with the golden and cadmium red foliage, this idyllic scene that I gaze upon, wounds my soul**… makes the scene very moving Sue… and I agree Mother Nature can out strip any dream with ease for sure… loved it girl… xxx

Aww shucks…
It is so easy to gravitate to a reality that has the qualities of a dream state, Fantasy or reality this is a most excellent write!…But I am missing Gideon this week, I thought I saw a glimpse of him behind the street sign in picture 1. 🙂 8 points Earthling! 🙂
I cracked up when I read your comment Gideon shall return have no fear but this fantasy was not his thing Mr. M that street sign is on my street – if Gideon had been there I would have snatched him up and brought him inside :))
This is gorgeous hon! Well thought out, love! xox
Thanks very much!
Your description is always breathtaking. And the pic of the autumn leaves makes me wish fall would arrive down here. Probably not for another two weeks. 😦 But yours is beautiful already. Great job!
Actually those pics were taken two years ago. It’s been pretty colourful here this year but leaves still on the trees. Thank you so much 😀
Ah…I was swept away by sheer beauty… gorgeous!
thank you so much Sharon appreciate it
OH!!!! So very nice!!!
coming from you that means a lot
Stunning imagery, Sue! Autumn is most definitely my favorite time of year…. and I have missed it for 25 years so you can imagine I’m in heaven right now. Lovely pictures too! 😀
thanks so much 😀
You weave it well! Your picture of the rose looks very much like my rose garden right now. Such beauty can only come from nature. 🙂

Cool! Love this! “wounds my soul”… leaves me searching for deeper meanings, like the seasons are passing too quickly.
