30 Words: Hoarfrost



Winter blows frigid breath over you
 leaving jagged ice razors in her wake.  
Now you look dangerous and sharp... 
untouchable.  
Beautiful razor wire protecting 
an ice princess in her castle.

The premise of 30 Word Thursday is simple... take a photo, write 30 words (no more, no less) and post it each Thursday.  This is a blog hop hosted by Erin Prais-Hintz over on her blog Treasures Found.  Click HERE to see her post for this week as well as links to everyone else's 30 Words.

  7. Thanks everyone! This was taken a couple of years ago when we had amazing hoarfrost everywhere. This is actually one of my husbands hop plants and remains one of my favorite pictures I've taken.
