Winter alights on a carpet of white, in a glistening gown of ice and snow. She arrives as migrating geese take flight and blustery breezes begin to blow, to the delight of babes of Scorpio. Snowflakes cover Fall's dead in a white shroud, burying the streets until they get plowed and shutting down all but Nature's playground. As a cloudless blue sky gives way to cloud, Nature's wild creatures start hunkering down.

i just love the line you used for the title here, Babes of Scorpio. That's so cool. Some of my best friends have been Scorpio and I love that image in your beautiful poem. Were you able to see Connie's funeral? I am so stupid. It went out of my mind and this morning I remembered that I had forgotten to Zoom into it. Good grief.

Thanks, Andrea, I'm sorry I wasn't able to see Connie's funeral, I miss speaking with her, but in my heart I know she is with her family, and that offsets the pain I'm feeling. As always I welcome and appreciate your comments my friend, Emile.

Another outstanding write from the pen of a master poet! I thoroughly enjoyed this, Emile, even if it did remind me of the wintry days right around the corner!
