Winter

Trees are bare,

Nights are cold,

Gray clouds fill the sky,

Water is frozen,

Snowflakes fall down,

As winds whip briskly,

Temperatures approach zero,

As the days move swiftly,

Nights run long,

The air is cold,

By the fireplace,

Stories are told,

Snowballs are thrown,

Angels are made,

Snowmen grow tall,

As their bodies are laid,

The winter is as beautiful,

As it is long,

But I’m the happiest,

When the winter is gone!
