December-The Changing Seasons- V2
December
December Haiku (White)
Weary but hopeful
December will settle in
Washed in winter white
***
I need to say that I prefer the decorative coating of winter white in this photo to any wintry white mix of precipitation! I am not wishing for, I dare not even say it, s-n-o-w! A mild winter would be fine by me. It seems hard to believe that December is here, and now nearly gone. This month has been tiring, and I am ready for some energizing rest and holiday cheer. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you all!

Such a beautiful photo, Terri. This must look really pretty all lit up at night. I am so partial to bike photos!

Thanks, Lois. I liked the twinkly lights and stopped to take a picture. I haven’t seen it at night, but I bet it’s pretty then too!

Great photo. In Canada such displays of white bikes mark an accident site where a biker has died.

Thank you, Victor. I hadn’t thought of anything like that. Fortunately, this was part of a holiday display in front of an antique furniture store!

Interesting comment from Victor. I didn’t know that either.
Luckily this was just a display and not accident related. 🙂

This is one of those photos that must have an interesting story behind it. A white bike with fairy lights; a small portion of a picket fence AND a wreath. Reading the comments, I wonder if it is actually a memorial to someone? I hope you are managing to have some relaxing days during the holidays so you are full of energy come the new year.

I thought it was just part of a holiday display, but maybe there is a deeper meaning too. I hope to get some rest this weekend! I can’t believe it’s almost the new year! Happy New Year to you!
