Ghetto Snow

Ghetto Snow

The snow would fall

The snow would fall

as it covered the alleyway with no delay

The snow would fall

The snow would fall

Filling in the cavities of my urban decay

Winter In DC

The statues/memorials in DC are most beautiful when it snows. There were about 3 to 5 inches last night in some areas of the DC metropolitan area (Midwest laughs). Anyway, this is one of my favorite snow scenes of the Korean War Memorial. It really makes you think of the troops and also of past conflicts. So, this snowy scene is dedicated to the veterans. I'm a Navy veteran (Doesn't that make me sound old?). **smile**
