WinterA Poem by gomjordan23Wind blows
Cold surrounds all
Howling, whistling
The outdoors become unbearable
People covered by dense layers
Birds abandon their roosts
Squirrels frantic to gather the last of their supplies
People tuck themselves in under blankets
Days pass by in a blink
Depression makes itself at home
Where a dense layer of red and yellow foliage once was
Color disappears
But life continues on Fires burn and smoke wafts out of chimneys
Marsh mellows are singed and seared Ginger bread real estate is put on the market
Pine needles adorn the floor
Bulbs and colorful globes hang from branches Laughter hits your ears Tightly packed snow whizzes thought the air
Children count down days
Anticipation builds
Family assembles
Eggnog and cocoa seem right at home in their mugs
All these signs can only mean one thing
Your senses scream it
