Commencement
They went out on the porch to welcome the New Year, snowflakes
pirouetting in the glow of the city lights below. A sudden gust sent the flakes
into a whirlwind. The small evergreen near the steps they’d strung with teeny
brass bells, shivered and jingled.

What a perfect way to ring in the New Year.
Talon, you are such a Class Act.
Creative, multi-talented, and so very insightful.
Thank you for being so loyal to the Friday Funfest. It's an honor and a joy to have you contribute.
Thanks for playing, loved your 55, and please have a Kick Ass New Year
You always create the most beautiful pictures with your words. Your photography is spectacular as well. I hope you have a wonderful 2012!

shivered and jingled,
what a perfect close.

Happy New Year!
What a lovely moment!
I heard the bells,
shivered at the snow flakes!

Lovely scene! thanks for the bells and tree- I have fallen for hand bells and church bells in a big way!
pirouetting snowflakes! love that.
Thanks for sharing such a lovely image of a new year's welcome. Happy 2012!
New Year rung in perfectly.
I can hear the teeny bells n the wind blowing the flakes about- You've set another beautiful scene in so few words. Happy New Years to you!
The photo, the verse, AWESOME!
That's a lovely image - the bells ringing in the wind - I can just hear it.
I don't know I expect it to be T shirt weather here in Detroit...well T shirt and bullet proof vests, they tend to celebrate in the traditional Arab way here...fire those guns into the air here.
Very nice! Perfect 'tidbit' bite Talon; the header shot is way coool. Love the macro images of plants and the like.

Sweeeeet.
We were looking at close-ups of snowflakes on the Net a few days ago. They are absolutely amazing in design and can pirouette too.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

This is lovely, Talon!
Hi Talon .. wonderful photo - but the poem what an exquisite way to ring in the New Year .. have a wonderful 2012 .. cheers Hilary
The first picture just took hold of me....I thought about it while walking in the warm rain today...then I saw a pink camellia in full bloom at the top of the hill
This can not be....I am thinking spring and I have left this moment in time....reading words I need to pull back and be here now
Thank you
Wow, that is nice.
Now, that is my kind of music!
Happy New Year!!
A moment captured in 55 words. Nice.
very nice! shivered and jingled...a sweet way for a couple to herald in the new year!
Your words are almost as clear a picture of a subject as your photos always are. I can feel the flurries, though we had one of our oddball warm spells here--could have been spring, and almost 70 tomorrow. Happy New Year, Talon--thanks for brightening my life with your words and pics.
A lovely 55!
So enjoyed it Talon!
And your header is so beautiful, I really like how you change it often.
Happy New Year!
I wish for you much joy!
First, How do ducks keep from freezing their feet off in such frigid waters?
That's my first question. My second: How do you keep making such fine pics?
OK. I know the answer to the second question...talent. Happy New Year!
Ring those bells!
That is indeed a wonderful way to ring in the new year.
Talon, I'm late getting around after my break, but I really enjoyed this, and the picture is gorgeous. Happy New Year!!!
