The Changes Around Us
They entered the extravagant garden
Cold air,
Tickling their necks
Great evergreens
Catching her grape eyes
Cold grass tickling
Roses pricking
Lilacs dancing
As frost bit their soft petals
Flowers Freeze,
They turn, They jump,
They learn they are stuck
ferried to the cold winter
Bare to the snow
One thing stands
Evergreens,
Thinking, missing
The great green grass
Their old winterberries
Holding each other
Reminiscing their warmth comfort
As they laid at their feet
Growing, feeding,
Leading and dying
As quick warmth arrived
Lavenders bloomed
Evergreens doomed
The spring is here
Yet it has made everything cold disappear
As birds chirped
The warmth worked
Killing the frost, Burying the moss
The only thing that remained
In the gardens name
The garden of cold
Was a simple flower standing bold
It danced and singed
Growing pristine
To build a new
When everyone knew
The cold was gone
