9. We used to go to a cabin sometimes in the summer.
   But I would imagine the winter even with the wood stove going it would have been cold. I hear the cabin burn down and the land got developed…

   …yes the beard of icicle is quite nice.

10. “beard of icicles” – perfect. There is something olden about the notion of a cabin, isn’t there (especially a mountain cabin) . . . at least, as an abstract image.

11. Wow … i don’t know what to say else Björn … this is such a creative way of responding on this prompt. i had to read it several times to relate with the image you have painted.

    • When the sun shines on the snow in spring you get those icicle and drops that keep falling.
