Winter and Fall played together today - I stayed near the window to see.
Fall brought her leaves and Winter his sticks and they brandished them furiously.
They played in the wind and they drew on the clouds and altered a nearby hill.
And when daylight was done, they painted the sky in color and vibrance and chill.
As dark settled in, the Winter remained to play with his toys through the night.
His fun left the ground where the two friends had played all covered in crystals of white.
The Sun rose on Winter alone in the yard, the time for friendship had passed;
Fall packed her color and tokens of Summer, and left her last leaves on the grass.
