Winter

December Festivals just hover, We’re in late autumn almost At the doorstep, winter rover Ready for nature’s riposte Just a delectable chill in the air, The wind has bite and tingling cold On the windows, frost dancing where There is the breath of icy cold. The grass brittle in early morning Slight smell of nature’s decay Soil hardens and leaves plumbing To the ground to face winter’s play A wondrous beauty of this season Sad beauty but powerful and moving Though tinged with taste of loss even Beauty of transitory nature’s blessing.
