Natures' Artistry

The leaves have fallen Love
And touched the ground
With such billowing softness 
From high they fall and utter no sound
A perfect picture to welcome 
The crystal flakes of white snow
Soon to arrive on the hardened back
Of that which the north wind blows
And you my love are nestled
Snug in your grave
Oblivious to changes
That nature has made
The bear is asleep
For a short winters nap
The geese have flown south
At midnight I heard a thousand wings flap
And Love you are nestled
Snug n your grave
Oblivious to the changes
That nature has made
The snow is not deep
The wind has calmed down
I had the trees trimmed
So none would blow down
The forests are quiet and lonely
After natures first snow
Snuggled deep in your grave
You would not know.
