Analysis of Winter's Eve in an Autumn Valley
Winter's Eve in an Autumn Valley
Dionne A. Reid
Don't retreat. Catalyst engravement, bold brass spectrum, on display. Heighten distances, brushed my breathe away.
Shut beneath in a sleepy chill.
Magnitude grand, silent birds and brash colored leaves are still.
Awake daylight streams, blue alleys.
Enlighten warm, and compete in the valley.
Winter's envy want to choke.
Shielded in clouds, faceless thoughts; looks with freezing smoke.
