Winter Wear

Trees abandoned from their leaves
                              Wearing boughs of lichen sleeves
                               A blanket from the cold breeze
                            When the blustery north wind teases

Marshall Iftekhar Ahmed Date: 1/11/2022 4:45:00 PM Winter wear of the trees! Such a skillful imagery! but may i ask, for the accurate rhyming, shouldn't "teases" be "tease" with breeze? I don't think its grammatically incorrect or is it? Thanks - Marshall.

Robert Lindley Date: 1/11/2022 12:32:00 PM "A grand painting as winter, its old garments shed. Aroused from darken stupor, its frigid bed. To blast like a windmill and send us its sad moans. Nary a concern cracklings of wee little stones." You gifted us a winter scene that speaks of its powers. It earthen purpose in being! A fav... God bless..
