Old abandoned farmsteads in ND are quite common, and they often contain plaintive vestiges of the prior lives they housed.

A poem written by my good friend, Steve Robbins, inspired by this image: There’s a room to the north Where the snow comes in. The cracks invite the wind openly As the windows relent to the winter. The panes long ago traveling into warmth, allowing the room and elements to become as one, with paint chips curling and dropping together. A dusting knocks at the door, invited. Surrounding my ol’ comfortable chair as a relic forgotten, in a move long lost and into the grip of empty, cold abandonment. Are the depths of this early chill already visible in the washed out image of winter? As a harrow, through the fields I wander back to the house and bare room entered from a recollection acquired in childhood I step over the sill, cautiously walking in. And the moment is captured in a frozen image. Printed for all to see as a sacrifice from the shutter. And my warmth overcomes and recollects This mid-October memory; back home

Peter, such a nice photo. It is now also immortilized on OSI Prompt89: Departed. I submitted this prompt and your photo came along at just the right time.

Thanks Samy, I think it needs two chairs, though, to qualify as romantic! Just kidding. P
