frost flowers blooming
on glass panes -- spicules of ice
born from seeds of dust
The tempestuous passage from winter to spring continues: frost yesterday morning, rain today, turning to huge snowflakes. The window frost on the truck looks like lace, blossoms, feathers, ferns, arrows. The shape of the crystals is influenced by irregularities in the surface of the glass, such as scratches or dust. Like snowflakes, diamonds and pearls, the perfection of ice patterns is born from seeds of imperfection.
Beautiful. You have frozen the ephemeral. Many thanks,
