Jack Frost Paintings Set 1

This is a sunset picture I took facing the southwest from our living room

This sunset almost looks like a fire, but there was no fire.
This time of the year our sunsets are deep in the south
In contrast they move quite a lot north in the summer

Here's a sunset picture taken toward the east across our driveway

Any wild cherries left on our tree are getting well chilled

The blue jays are huge in the White Mountains

Mt. Washington painted in late autumn with a white cap

Wild cranberries in front of my desk

This is an autumn snowfall before its proper time

I see from my house by the side of the road
By the side of the highway of life,
The men who press with the ardor of hope,
The men who are faint with the strife,
But I turn not away from their smiles and tears,
Both parts of an infinite plan-
Let me live in a house by the side of the road
And be a friend to man.
Sam Walter Foss (1858-1911)

The lines of World renowned Poet and also a Nobel laureate, Rabindra Nath Tagore.
 He wrote (copied from Wikipedia English translation of original Bengali poem)

If they answer not to thy call walk alone,
If they are afraid and cower mutely facing the wall,
O thou unlucky one,
open thy mind and speak out alone.

If they turn away, and desert you when crossing the wilderness,
O thou unlucky one,
trample the thorns under thy tread,
and along the blood-lined track travel alone.

If they do not hold up the light when the night is troubled with storm,
O thou unlucky one,
with the thunder flame of pain ignite thy own heart
and let it burn alone.
