Winter

winds bluster deep within the sycamore pulling memories from the strength of time as shattered leaves commence their fall I watch, helplessly/hopelessly sheltered behind smudged glass barren as each side thins looking out at what once was looking in climbing that sycamore in all her splendor rich and full of life high was I cherishing the delectation of a grand blue sky hushed in amazement along with the honey bee flapping magic in her wings oh my, how graceful was thee swaying but still still it always will • there's a crackle to the east the winds bluster again darkness knocks I close my eyes and try to remember the scent of happiness slowly drifting far far away

All will come good. They grow so fast, climbing trees one day, and then they are journeying to new Forests and kingdoms. Eventually, they come looking for you, if there is strength and love. Time for you now.

I watch a lot of golf on T.V. just to see green grass. Our winters are long here. You've captured the cold perfectly. Stay well my friend,

Nature has a way of capturing our imagination and you expressed it very nicely in this poem.
