A cold that surrounds us
with a deathly chill
greets us as the colorfull leaves
fall slowly away as if theyr'e ill.

Gusts of chlly wind
the scent of Christmas trees
and seeing the decorations lend
a happy atmosphere,you see.

But the trees are bare
And eerie at night
as the crystal-like shapes glare
defiantly in the grim light.

Towering trees, joy, lauhgter
don't generally mix unless it's winter in Decemer

&quot;You know you&rsquo;re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is &ndash; wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you&rsquo;re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself.&quot;
