Deidra Greenleaf Allan: CAPE MAY


The fuschia and lavender facades of the Victorian B & Bs stare out across Beach Avenue, porches salt grizzled and blown with snow. From my window, nothing but cloud-packed sky and empty avenues. Even the seagulls hang in the sky as if painted. The whole town holds itself, like Hokusai’s wave, in frozen anticipation.

  1. A wonderful picture. I've not been in Cape May in the winter, but having seen it in the summer I can imagine how it looks.
