Home

before the snow

by Mary Ellen Smith

dark, bare trees beckon to me.

stripped of their dress,

leafless

waiting for the shroud of winter.

we will wait together you and I

shivering for a bit,

warming ourselves

with the fires of Autumn's lost color.

You catch the feel of winter in your inimitable style. Great last line!
