Winter's Lull

The weather changes,
with cool breezes flowing through,
Suddenly everywhere becomes desolate
on cue,

Hints of the holidays hover through the
dismal days,
The excitement builds up,
then gently flitters away,

After the festivities,
it will only be more
bland Autumn days,
with trees standing
as scarecrows do
in the cornfields,
and chimneys burning
to create  Currier and Ives scenes,

While emotions feel betwixt and between,
thinking that warm sunshine solves everything.
