Thank you .. that is beautiful. As long as there is one, glimmer, spark, or glow: there is hope.My first impression was "Walden Pond on a winter day." A place to build a cabin and contemplate life. I like how you captured the gloom... I used to look out my window on days like this and the thought that came to mind was "murky dismal" but the way you painted the water is absolutely beautiful, as a mirror of life... and all the growing things give me a sense of hope for the future.
