It is December, yet autumn lingers still,499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvA5KAFgE26
A season caught between longing and will.499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqZCWKiTft
The snow is scarce, the earth undecided,499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueUh7JakUP
As if winter itself stands, uninvited.
Leaves cling stubbornly to weary boughs,499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZojEih7d4L
Whispering secrets in trembling rows.499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1gfPRAYlZ
The willows refuse to bare their frame,499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NO4EJZEnR
And the squirrels pause, uncertain, unnamed.
I yearn for frost’s crisp, quiet embrace,499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2oUpT8zLE
For snowflakes to melt as they kiss my face.499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhzMzX2GGV
For the sharp, clean breath of the winter air,499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnUBtPOMEf
To fill my lungs, unburdened, bare.
