As winter approaches
the leaves turn brown
They now cover the ground
They crunch as you walk
before the first snow



The wind gets colder
Whips through the barren trees
making it sound
as if they are whistling
some sad musical tune

  
Then the first snow arrives
The sounds of children playing
and snowballs
whizzing past your ear
Snow crunching under
your every step



The sounds of winter beauty

When the family is together, the soul is at peace - Russian Proverb

this is so picture perfect I'm in Oz and right now I could go for some winter beauty instead of this summer blaze

Love is the life of the soul...
It is the harmony of the universe

Your poem about the Winter Beauty was nicely rendered, The_Doctors_Angel_32. I remember fearsome winters when I lived in New York City and Cheyenne, Wyoming. We are having a mild winter this year so far, thank goodness.

Thank you JerryPat2!!! I have never lived up north. LOL I am in Florida. But I still remember in 1989 when we got snow. That is what I base my winter poems on.
