Wintertime Tale

Grey squirrels chitter in old oak trees
there is a frosty cold ice breeze
ivory skeleton trees sway
grey clouds eclipse a clear blue day

I'm walking far and long
whistling a strange song
beneath veins of limbs along a winding trail
flickering above the Winter birds sail

The grey day slowly fades to night
and the ivory moon shines her mystic light
she chases the shadow of clouds away
here the twilight creatures play

The star of Christ is shimmering so bright
cutting through the black of the night
I ask Him for the world to shine
bathed in peace, bliss, love, and wine

Love the flow of the poem and the way you describe the characteristics of winter. Nice how you put some religion in there, too. Makes it that much more heartfelt.
