Winter's Breath

Winter's breath
An icy caress
Bejewels autumn's landscape

Glistening hues of red and gold
Breathtaking to behold
Succumb to the seasonal rape

Deep, deep down
In the cold, cold ground
Next spring's offerings wait

"Seasonal rape" An interesting way of looking at the changing of the seasons, Gwen. Sometimes it can be harsh.

It does seem like a wonderful plan of rejuvenation when plants go dormant to survive only to resurface when the world is ready for them.
