It was November, and the chill in the air was not from the cold…

Night fell across the snow covered mountains, but something felt strangely different, something was amiss. The orb, which had been glowing so brightly the night before, was no longer glowing at all. It was seemingly a dead rock, just floating in space. Its light had been extinguished, making the Earth much colder than ever before. Even the stars lost their twinkle. The world suddenly turned to black and white.

Not far in the distance, a diabolical laugh, sent shock waves through the mountains…

He had returned.

Flowers show their faces
Chin up, to the morning sun
Stretching, as a new day
Shines, upon each one

Yet, further in the distance
The snow has just begun
Newly fallen, it appears
Perhaps, winter is not done

Mother Nature, once again
Continues playing games
Every year’s no different
She always takes the blame

It’s how she keeps her stature
Tis her universal claim to fame
Else, if things were boring
You might forget her name

She’s a blending of the seasons
By using a touch of her hand
You may think otherwise, but
She has this whole thing planned

Her touch creates the wonder
We admire across the land
With her palette, full of colors
Things always look so grand

So, when you see the flowers
But, the hills are full of snow
You can’t imagine life, without
This amazing, living, show

Give thanks to Mother Nature
As you watch her beauty grow
Be sure she knows you’re grateful
For decorating Earth just so

I watch the sun set, o’er the mountains

A breathtaking sight, for my eyes, to see

Colors of orange, red, yellow, like a fountain

Decorating twilight, with a glorious apogee

Snowcapped mountains, a place to roam

For a family of the wolves, tis their home

Frosted breath echoes, with every howl

Voices in the night, they’re on the prowl

The crisp frigid air, does charm their senses

Each one watches, with heightened defenses

Ready to strike, when the moment is right

Take heed to the call, of the wolf, in the night
