Winter
Miranda Ridenour 1985 (Modesto)
The fallen leaves show first signs of fall.
The breeze is chilled with winter coming
The sky is dark with clouds.
All the birds have flown south
The silent howling of the angry sky
Let's us know a storm is brewing nearby.
The sun has faded, the flowers have died
The side of the mountain is no longer bright.
Time to get the fires going , sip hot chocolate, and stay warm through this
Cold night winter storm.
About this poem
It's feelings I can't express any other way.
