Winter's Sigh

*This just happened ...lol

Winter’s sighs, as skies turn blue
Snow retreats with silent breakthrough
The clouds are glowing in the sunlight
Getting ready for an early sunset tonight
Winter sighs, for now snow is enough
Wind blows it off things in a puff
For the first time here, leaves fall too
Because fall was not finished through
SUDDENLY, everything turns gray
A burst of a snow squall returns this way
Winter changed mind very fast
It now looks like a blizzard blast!
This poem started as winter’s sigh
Until everything changed going by
Now the snow is swirling sheets of white
All in a twist of time, before night!
