Winter Scene in Wisconsin © 2015 Bo Mackison
What do the trees know?
Buds can weather ice and snow.
Dark gives way to sunlight’s glow.
Strength and stillness help us grow.”

A Tree in Strength and Stillness – A Winter Scene

About Bo MackisonI'm a photographer, book-artist, traveler, naturalist, and creator of the Contemplative Creatives Journey, An Online Workshop and Community and Desert Wisdom Cards and Workshops. Though often not well known, I find the desert a welcoming place - a healing space. Its mysteries and gifts transformed me several years ago. Since that first encounter, I return again and again to fill my well in what most people think of as a desolate region. I'd love to share my desert discoveries and wisdom with you. Please subscribe to receive my five part mini email course The Gifts of the Desert. It's my gift to you.

Bleak. Well done, but it does feel bleak.
Quinn, it’s in the middle of February, it’s snowing and its -3˚F. Bleak is a perfect description. I, like the tree, am waiting for warmer times.
