Winter

I smell the forest in the wind
I see the trees getting red of a kind
I notice the days getting shorter and shorter
I know the winter is coming.
I hear the dry leaves falling
I imagine the snowball rolling
I stretch my hands to see if I can touch it
I know the winter is coming.
I plan to bake a cake very soon
I want to see the snow in the moon
I wish I could bring the time closer and closer
I know the winter is coming.
I remember a day not so long ago
I was waiting for the hot days to go
I smiled when the cool breeze touched my hair
I knew the winter was coming.
I felt the winter came at last
I found it brought me joy so fast
I got so much that I couldn’t think of getting ever
I knew surely someone was coming.
I saw him coming on a stormy night
I thought I saw an armored knight
I opened the door as he stepped on my porch
I knew my love was coming.
