Winters


Dark, dismal, dreary days.

Short, sharply shivering days

Sleet slaked and sodden days.


Days sad with savage chill.

Days filled with feeling ill.

Days grey and brooding still.


Weak, watered sunlight brief.

Grim trees bereft of leaf

lost to the daylight thief.

Thanks Chris. Yes it is short, but I didn't plan to add anything.

I do keep going back to things though. You never know.

Rather like this but it feels a little bit short - unfinished, perhaps.
