"Fiery Summer courts Icy Winter"

By Jaylin Wytchwood and Marina Ramer

Winners of a 1000L Studio Sidhe Gift Card

 

On an Enchanted day in autumn

Fiery Summers eyes beheld

what was never seen before.

Icy Winter, new and fresh

covering the land with her frosty beauty.

So strange she was, so fair and tender

his heart went soaring high, and upon

wings of summers ray,

He went down to lay eyes upon the icy maiden,

turning fresly laid snow to water again, accidentally.

 

Her frozen eyes saw the fire fall and

watched Fiery Summer regard her

works, and melted them, and so she was angry.

Cold and loud like Winterstorm her voice was,

scolding him:

"What dares you burn my work, my snow, undo

my craft, delay my winters reign?"

 

Fiery Summer only smiled, for he has heard

what never he had heard before, her voice.

And love took his heart forevermore.

He knelt down and took her icy hand in his.

"Fair winter maiden, i am just the humble

summer, but my heart burns true...

Fair maiden, i need and... love you!"

Icy Winter regarded her suitor with wonder,

for only coldness ruled her heart

Long she stood there,

looking into Summers eyes,

estwhile her cold heart melted, and she

saw the fiery prince`s love,

strange and wonderful to her

 

Summer and Winter

Fire & Ice

Married in love, and they say,

since that moment,

Summer and winter changed in Enchanted.

The winters mild and friendly

The summers breezy and airy.

as one completed the other.

In this contest, Green Heron is almost always the winner. On Horsepen Bayou.

Taken on Pearl Pass between Aspen and Crested Butte, Colorado. I'm getting tired of snow and have enjoyed looking back through image files to find shots like this one that I haven't processed and posted. Happy Sunday!!!
