9 January


superfluous



i was hunkered down under two

duvets with a cup of coffee

and no plans for getting up 

any time at all before spring

you came into the room and

told me of the sea fog

rolling in over the Atlantic ocean

just outside of our bedroom windows

you charmed me with your enthusiasm 

into dressing in layers upon layers

to venture out into the arctic

superfluous cold - sunrise with the Nikon

  14. It's nice to have someone who pays attention to such things, alerting us to photo ops that might otherwise be missed. Nicely contrasted photos.
