A Cold Winter's Day

Wind
Blowing
Snow drifting
Covering all
Leaving pure whiteness
Colors fade into grey
Clouds filling a lifeless sky
Burning at the sunlit edges 
Bright red, crimson, gold and orange fire
Remembering the life that will return

I like this, the way gradually introduce color into the scene, starting out grey and white and then moving to more colors is very smooth.

This is beautiful. You are good at ehterees. The imagery is beautiful and clear. Hope you survived the blizzard! We had about 6 or 7 inches yesterday. Happy writing and Happy New Year! Love, Robin
