Winter ice melts into clear water; clear is my heart Hyakka Just one week ago I was posting a photo of the zen garden covered in Ice. Today I awoke to 40 degree weather and fog. I also found the garden filled with water after a heavy downpour of rain accompanied by thunder and lighting from the night before, and its still February! Nevertheless, it was a beautiful site.
Winter snows arrived Water rests beneath the ice Flowers dream of spring After returning from my vacation in Florida, I was greeted by snow and ice in the the Zen garden. The temperature has been oddly warm and hence rain turned most of the snow into slush, only to freeze over the next day. As a result, an ice filled pond now fills the usually dry landscape garden bed.
