Winters Here

WINTER"S HERE

                                        The leaves are falling,
                                      a new season comes calling,
                                      orange, red, and fuscia leaves,
                                   scattered up and down by the breeze .

                                      As balmy breezes strip the trees
,                                  these whispering trees await the freeze,
                                              A serene blend of beauty
                                                    Fall slips away,
                                          gone are the days on the lakes,
                                     back-yard bar-be-ques, and clam-bakes.

                                                   The snow-fall comes
                                                          our noses run,
                                       winter's here we'll make snowmen for fun.

I enjoyed your winter poem, Joan, and the shape you choose. We don't get snow here in CA. so it is a pleasure to read about it in poems. But I come from Iowa, and we do got much snow and winter blizzards when I lived there. You might like my poem "Winter Woods" Blessings, Darlene
