Winter Is a Ghost

I see winter much like a ghost The cold and white I remember most. When spring arrives it just disappears But now it is snow and cold I fear. Haunting shadows from lifeless trees Set this mood that is inside me. I look around the world seems dead Visions of a ghost return to my head. I see a mist rise from the unfrozen pond I dream of a place that is far beyond. You know of its presence yet it’s not there I seek signs of life yet find them nowhere. It is cold I can see my breath in the air The cold wind sends shivers much like a scare. I think of a ghost like the past at my side I try to seek shelter it is warmer inside. The visions before me seems so real While the presence of a ghost I do feel. Winter is much like death renewal is spring Life shall be restored and the colors it brings.
