Notes About The Poem

Seasons Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Joseph May Written 12/10/2025

Winter

In the middle of the darkest night, I make a surprisingly large sight. In a boundless appearance in times. Mercifully fleeting, swirling, and patterned climbs; Swift, laborious, and icy blasts; And horrible in some places that are forecasts. I constantly change with the site, Never the same but always a sight. With moving wind and howling sound, Bringing a low climate close to freezing ground, Covering the land in a pristine blanket of glistening Snow. Some snuggle indoors in comfort, not listening. I am never alone. My frosty white mornings bring Tranquil calmness to those and countless creatures to spring As I embrace. Then silence is broken with the sound. Of the crunching footsteps. On the frost-covered ground. With the energy of nature and the activities of human fun, I host a unique universe of life under the sun. I am Winter, a magic in a world of great wonder. Engaging and entertaining, ladening life snowed under.
