autumn’s now spent
snow flakes fall in silence
white fairy flurries
we spend the evening
as the radio plays Brahms
philosophizing
anguish –
spending all her energy
for his love
she fills her soul
walking under the plums
as the blossoms rain
spending time reflecting
on the last days of winter

LOL … sorry if I laugh, but where I am (Italy) we’ve just gotten our winter about a week ago … and it isn’t even properly snowy or rainy .. lots of sunshine – it’s just the temps are very low.
But spring will soon be back. We’ve almost completed January .. just two months to go. 😉
