more ice on the windows

January 7, 2014 by Cynthia

Clearly, I don’t live in the most insulated house in the world.

But if I did, I don’t know how I would experience this beauty to be found on windows first thing in the morning.

Of course, as I write these words, I am reminded of folks who say that I tend to find the bright side of any situation.

But I wasn’t trying to come to terms with the cold this morning as I wandered from window to window. I reflected on the fact that different windows had different displays of ice from individual crystals to long glittering strands to sheets of ice thinly covering whole window panes.

The most surprising find of the morning was the rainbow. I stood next to an especially patterned window just as the light shifted or I shifted or whatever … all I know is I saw a rainbow and it was lovely. 😉

Oh, I love these. All pattern, and yet all random, too. I love that in the natural world. Not that we humans aren’t both pattern-driven and random, too! These are so beautiful.
