Light in Winter

It always seems to me that moss glows with an inner light.  Especially when the weather is at its darkest, it gently radiates a reminder that there is still light in the world.

While the first flowers may be appearing in other parts of the city, here in the tiny microclimate where I live, we are always a couple of weeks behind.  So on slate gray days like today, I am grateful for a little green light.
