Winter Sky

A winter sunset lights the sky imported and quick the day has shortened, in dull shades of white and gray to fast unnoticed slip away. Pale yellow whites streak bold with blue and all that's left of pumpkin harvest hues gathers bodies towards the inside warmth of late October shadowy haunts. Too fast the season finds repose hiding in the night light glows full moon rises large and orange awaiting winter's cold barrage.
