True Signs of Winter
Snow clouds against a navy-blue
sky;
A cold, white moon and lone star
nearby;
The season has changed - bid farewell
to fall;
Thoughts turn to winter - snow
and all.
Cars are tuned so they'll purr
like kittens;
Out of the closet come hats, scarves
and mittens.
Houses are readied for winter's
cold blast;
Days are shorter and shadows cast.
Snow clouds against a navy-blue
sky;
A cold, white moon and lone star
nearby.
