In the bleak midwinter, frosty wind made moan,
Earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone;
Snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow,
In the bleak midwinter, long ago.
from In The Bleak Midwinter by Christina Rossetti
A wintry landscape for my last Monday Verse. We had a couple of really cold, snowy winters whilst we were living in Yorkshire, and this is one of my favourite photos from that time.
Beautiful photo:)…….. and I do like that poem too.
Deservedly a favourite – it is exquisite (as is the Rossetti, of course)
