Fire Dance

Burn up the winter
Watch it float away
Pile up the timber
Make it bright as day

Winter is gone, spring is here
Come to claim another year
For those who live for skies so clear
This weather draws a joyful cheer

Catch the snow before it falls
Keep an ember for your pocket
Heed the spring when it calls
Take a picture for your locket

Light up the night, chase the light
Put away winter's fright
Keep out the dark, run in the park
Search for the faces for a spark

Meet your match, face your foe
There is only one way to know
Who is wrong, who is is right
All is clear in the fire's light

Tulip Festival Photo Walk 5-4-11

.....

Leah and I went to the Tulip Festival earlier this month. We were armed to the teeth with DSLR's and memory cards in preparation for snapping the perfect shot for the festival's photo contest. The pics above are my best (out of 200) and the last one is the one I would have entered into the contest IF WE HAD REMEMBERED THE DEADLINE. Ah well. Better luck next time!
