Season of Snows

Lifeless shiver the decaying meadows Where blizzards of winter exact a toll, Freezing foliage in autumnal throes; Dimming ambitions of parching knoll. Golden beams glimmer dreams of dawn Soothing miseries of trembling night, Now that splendorous autumn is gone, Sprinkling delight on withering blight. Season of snows flaunts nature aglow Where rivers freeze, struggle to flow, Prairies enliven, donning falling snow; While mountaintops adorn glacial glow.
