    Winter


    Cold, sweeping darkness, settling upon every crevice
    Ice forcing its wrath to burst out, its intricate designs meaning nothing but sorrow, echoing the howl of the lonely wind
    A desperate cry unheard over the roar of the rushing air, the never ceasing rustle of the barren trees
    Nothing to await you but the icy fingers creeping up your skin, scraping your flesh with its claws
    This is winter.
    Winter will not sheath its talons with a tear for mercy, instead turning the droplet to solid cold.
    Winter will not allow puerile thoughts to echoe in the mind, not allow hatred to go unnoticed.
    Winter is everywhere,
    not just occurring in the season.
    You see its unleashed anger in every crevice of the world, no matter where you seek for final safety.
    Winter is final.
    Winter is undefeated.

    Like spring and summer (as well as fall) winter is beautiful too. It really just depends on how you choose to view it. Great wording though!

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
