The Reign of Winter
She arrives in gown of pristine white:
Stunning
Tempestuous
Cold.
A crystal crown of ice adorns
Her frosty pate.
As she claims her wintry throne,
Winter makes her presence known,
With frigid breath,
and icy touch,
she lingers---
Blue skies turn gray,
Autumn reds and golds fade away,
And
the
earth
slumbers.
