Winter's Silence


                    skeleton trees sway,
                winter gifts them white 
                    b
                      l
                       a
                         n
                           k
                             e
                               t
                                 s
                                   sleepy hush follows

I can see the tree appearing as a skeleton, bare branches. Mother Nature took her leaves and then covered her nakedness with a blanket of snow. That took me a lot of words to express what you did in eleven!!
