Blazing Spark ~ #poetry of the #seasons

Autumns leaves, turned to brown

And with them, all the colors drown

Replaced by flakes of purest white

On barren limbs, a weary sight

Winter snow covers what is left

But here I wonder, quite bereft

Why autumn lost her blazing spark

Naked, cold, she embraces dark

It holds the spirit of Christmas

With its flowers, pink and white

A variegated beauty, dazzling

To warm our winter nights

Her leaves of emerald green

Snuggle up, from rooted stems

Together they decorate our holidays

And we smile, because of them

The poinsettia is a Christmas tradition

Brought here from Mexico

A tropical plant, with such elegance

Of sweetest nature, does bestow

Dank, dismal, dark days

Dreaded and disregardful

Dreary by design
