Skywatch Friday: Winter Comes

"One good frost is all we need; then these leaves will come down."
One good frost, and all life beats a retreat south or at least inward
And by the weakened light rests,
Sleeps, perhaps,
And in the stillness feels its own heart beat.
It is enough. That is winter.

    I am always eager for the first good, killing frost. It kills the leaf mold and asthma girl (that'd be me) can breathe again without the help of steroids!
