So Long To Winter

You drop slowly to the ground Silently, not making a sound You gather layer upon layer of dust Playing with you is a must. You get colder the more I watch You melt at my very touch Coming to see me in winter season Without any rhyme or reason. I can only play with you so long Until your season is done I must wait for a season new then bid you winter adieu. 11/10/12

Ah Phyl, how I wish it were true, despite the hope you express, it hangs in front of me like an enduring chill. Now write me one to get me through it! :) Luv, Lizzie
