Today I have some poetry for you which is appropriate for this time or year, especially if you live in the northern hemisphere and are experiencing the ever growing colder days as we head towards winter.  I know I’ve been sharing a lot of old poetry lately but this poem is brand new and I do hope you like it 🙂  Let me know if anything from this poem resonates with you ❤ 🙂

As Days Fall Quiet

©The Strawberry Post

A beautiful day,
A wondrous sight,
As days fall quiet,
Losing their light.

Bright greens and reds,
Turn into browns,
Crisp and crunch.
Swept out of towns.

Winds turn bold,
Chilling to core,
Skin now uncorvered,
Left red and sore.

Wrapping round layers,
As trees now go bare,
Others stay clothed,
Bright lights they now wear.

Coming together,
Resting by fire,
Creatures outside,
Safe or expire.

As bitter winds blow,
No escape from dark,
As crystals of white,
Make world look stark.

Making, preparing
For one special day,
Imaginging, hoping,
To enjoy and play.

The beautiful dark,
That magical night,
A time to make wishes,
Smile, sing, reunite.
