Longing For Winter
I never longed so hard for the winter
as I did
on this seemingly endless
sweltering summer day
the leaves knew what I wanted
barren and brittle
brushing across the burning green
seeking solace from a sunny scene
cold
it demands attention
crispness cutting thru the wind
unwavering fierceness to the end
I greet her as I greet my lover
with open arms
destined to wrap around her
in a place she can be found
I never longed so hard for the winter
a bonding
of conflict, of comfort
where truth can always be bound

Just Awesome, Winter is one of my favorite seasons, Fall is the other. The Summer is just too hot for me. I suppose I always run hot. lol
This is such a metaphoric beauty capturing both winter and love in ways I see it too. Almost like you wrote it for me. Did you? :p
I long for the winter and to be bound, but you know what mean. Something tells me you have the ropes and handcuffs ready. lol

Hey Tim
For me this reads like a warm hug. That was my favorite stanza.
Wrapping arms around winter and snuggling.
Enjoyed this!!

Scoot over, I'm with you, by a campfire.
Vivid write. An exact amount of descriptions to draw the line between bad summer and good winter!
Well done.
