Cracked Bean - is it hatching? (Click to enlarge)
Oh the snow
In Chicago
The wind ablowin
Snowdrifts growin
We had a watcher in the tree
Just watching, waiting, silently
He came back later
With a greeting
NOT the best kind
Worth repeating
Still the fact
That he chose me
(the only crow
among the three)
Onto bestow
A gift for free
Made it not
As hard to see
That I am special
Yes sirree
*or so I told myself as I cleaned off my jacket...

THat just looks WAY too cold! I think I would be hiding under that cracked bean waiting for the warmer weather.
That is a great picture of the lone crow.
;o)
More snow beans yay! Chicago looks WONDERFUL in snow.
A warm greeting from a fellow bird, eh? ,-)
Darn. When is it going to get warm!
:-) How tastes silver beans? Wonderful grey, snowy winterday.
that giant bean makes me think the artist was dying for a cup of coffee. hehehehe
Great photos and rhyme. None of my hatching bean photos came out right. I'll steal yours.
Jillie - The company-kept made the cold non-existent. The bean was marvelous - amazing in fact!
The crow was one of the few birds we saw while in Chicago - other than the European Rock Doves (otherwise known as pigeons) and occasional black bird.
Ariel - Yes, the snow was so awesome! I didn't like the slippery ice as well, but the snow was a blast. Oh, and I assume the warm greeting from the crow had cooled by the time it reached my shoulder. ;-)
Tom & Icy - Sending you some California sunshiny greetings to warm you up. Little Ms. Noname needs some warmth for her kittens.
SOe - I assume it is a coffee bean - looked like it to me. I didn't taste it though - my tongue would have stuck.
Lime - Agreed - the need for coffee would generate such a beautiful oversized brilliant bean. I feel the pull of it coming over me right now.
Doug - No need to steal :-) I often give treats to beagles. I have another picture of a giant metal egg hatching - it is further along, and was taken in Keflavik.
It just goes to show that even guardian angels have a sense of humor. ;-)
