Winter

Updated: Dec 6, 2023

Winter arrives in fits and starts,

belligerent and bitter

pulling the last leaves from the trees

red, yellow and gold

spiralling earth ward

short lived,

a skeletal crunch underfoot

crushed

into the decaying damp

leaching life

cryogenically frozen

as winter tightens its grip.

I can certainly feel "the tight grip" in it. Like how your writing always evolves or even merges with the atmosphere of the content.
