First Trace of Winter

A soft blanket covers the ground
White and sticky
It clumps on the sides of my shoes 
As I walk carfully through it

Green peaks though 
In each footprint

The roofs and tops of the cars have a small dusting
Of the glitering stuff

Fall is gone quicker than expected 
Leaves covered and trees bare

Winter here we come

    Wow, we haven't had any snow yet! I'm hoping we don't get any until November. *fingers crossed*

    in echoes,
    where your world is me,
    and my world is yours."
