Pitch Moon

by Lori St. George

Tar pines scratch at the bone moon.
The grey mist in the pitch,
Howls a winter come too soon.

Horse bells scatter down the hollow.
A ghastly beauty dance of twigs,
The windy sleepless sorrow.

I think of you.

Oh how often we think of some love either current or past and how the thought of winter coming too soon brings out the words. Nicely done.

I like the image of "The windy sleepless sorrow." Just awesome writing.

I love winter. It is just so tender and romantic. As is this.
