Inspired by the brief beauty of the season, I’ve penned “Prelude to Winter”. Enjoy her before winter pounces.
Her coat of colors laid bare A prelude to winter Impossible to appreciate Until she’s disappeared You’ll long for her Arms of amber sunshine Her face raspberry-orange delight Easy to take for granted In the descent of madness Kiss of unexpected heat Her prelude briefly Begs you to remain In a precious time and place Impossible to embrace Fleeting and unbearably spectacular She’s gone Leaving a twinkle of October In her wake And what’s to come many forsake Colorless skies and dull, chilly days Prelude to winter Left you empty-handed Make no mistake She’s a beauty few can grasp Until it’s too late
Thanks for reading and for sharing.
