Leaves fall slow spiral
wet sticky clumped heaps
Golden brown blood red
decomposing warmth feeds life
winters white blanket chills
biting cold to marrow
thickening freezing vital life
preserving flesh stealing souls
lady winter glides along
Gossamer wisp of mist
talons of Icy pain
lips of blue death
the winters blanket covers
eyes slowly shut freeze
Lady winter draws close
stealing warmth away
long lingers her kiss
short is my breath
frozen air fills me
glassy orbs gaze lifless
