Winter
Leaves you blind
Keeps you questioning
Shows you pain
Winter
Is silent death
Day; quiet, bone-chilling cold
Night; howling wind through frozen trees
Winter
Gifts us with chilled powder
Rids us of green leaves
Ventures into welcoming homes
Winter
Captures warmth
Invites cold
Unites families

Winter is coming The majestic trees lose their rich, red robes, Leaving them bare, exposing their bones. Their skeletal arms tremble in the grey, Delivering moans and grunts of dismay.
Winter has intruded into cool February air Leaving kisses in a blanket To tuck the snowdrops back to sleep.
The wind. A locked rattled cage, Trying to escape, With no air to breathe. The earth. Deeply rooted, Sad and disillusioned, Wanting what was hers. The fire.
Another day, aglow in. The light of early autumn. Ticks by, carefree and willing,. Unrelenting in its beautiful. Slow death,. Reaching out and peeling reddened. Leaves from the bony fingers of trees,.
Spring come harken to the summer's call, That passes by on a whispered breeze, Exhaling warmth like a shallow breath, On the ebb and flow of calming seas.
If I were a daisy Or a buttercup so gay, Children'd hold me under their chin And laugh the day away.
Summer turns to Autumn, Old ways come undone, Replaced with cobwebs, Where laughter used to run. Autumn turns to Winter, New ways seem far bitter, Replaced with doubt, Where laughter used to shout.
