transition to winter

things started dying today

like they always do

as will me and you

that is just to say

the leaves are falling away

grass a sepia hue

daylight more subdued

darkness here to stay

prepare for hibernation

during winters duration

you might not see the light

wrap up tight

take on the night

the season of the raven
