Winter

Winter is here, kiss of the frozen steel
Void of deep colors
Waits for her mask to peel
The trees pain in shedding leaves
Like brave mothers lost children in battlefields
Dried tears nest on barks
With branches waving scintillating stars

Forest is in a hibernation
Under sparkling snow
Hiding treasures from scavengers and crows
Rending air pierces into the wild
Sings a ghostly lullaby               
I watch winter dance in flair 
Its vastness numbs my feeling
Whiteness washes out my unsettling despair
