December's Transit

Days stream by leaves on a river Nights drag on hard frozen ground Life's promise deserted barren branches December's transit bound for nowhere

December can be so desolate - we've had lots of cold rain out here in Portland!

We've been lucky here for the past week. Hope the good luck continues... and maybe come your way too! :) gw

And I didn't even include the four-letter-word that starts with 's.' (Hint sn_w). LOL. Thanks! :) gw

great metaphor to create the vivid image of december's glum...soon will arrive the shortest day of the year and then...each day will increase in length and we will have spring arriving... hugs

Nicely Penned Gershon. December can bring cold frozen thoughts that leave us barren inside. Thanks for sharing

Loved this one my friend. I know i usually try to come up with something humorous but that would not be appropriate for something this beautiful and affecting. Nicely done GW.
