Dear December

December takes over with pride, 
Congruent with its icy reign.
Cold promptly gets into its stride, 
Settling in wintery domain. 

Time to peruse in white repose 
Seasons and life’s prompt change of scene - 
Let go of transient blues and lows, 
And welcome budding hues of green.

Dear Margarita, I too, "welcome budding hues of green" after the long winter season. You've captured the snowy cold and cozy warmth of Winter, and the green relief of Spring with finesse. A wonderful collaboration with Jo, you are both very fine and talented poets indeed! Best wishes for a win in the contest. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan

It sounds so lovely sitting by the fireplace while gazing out your window watching the snow coming down soundlessly. So beautiful, Margarita. All the best in the contest. :)
