Tonight,.. stars dangle from the trees,
honed razor sharp, to pierce the cold
Yet, fragile is the whispered breeze,
for winter's grasp is growing old
Forever words, were once conceived,
still tangible, on sprouted leaves
But dreams that disappeared again
will wither and must have an end
A newer song, within the breeze,
has drifted with each snowflake, fair,
And sift through branches, as a dare
to urge the sprouts that burrow there
When world was bathed in ivory snows
Forever' words that we had known
will melt away, as they must be
What matters now, are memories,
as winter comes, as winter goes
Within the clutch of winter's night
the grip was strong, and fastened tight,
But moon and stars, unite as friends
and earth will know the sun again
Tonight, stars dangle from the trees
reminders of the season's end
of what is found, and will begin
One season ends, and one begins
