Cold Weather

The wind howls softly

As the breeze blows the trees

Making them do a little dance in the cool air

Leaves swirl up and down the path

And every now and then you can hear them crunch...

Freshly dead from the cold weather

If you listen quietly the soft wind speaks

But only for you to hear

It whispers quietly

For you to come and play

But winter is near

The wind begs for you, for a friend

Someone it can dance around

And take their breath away

For someone to play

It's tired of being lonely

But no one likes the cold

Come play you hear the whispers

I need the company

I hate this silence

The only one talking is me

Everyone's tired of hearing my howling

And honestly so am I

I miss the laughter of children

And the happiness of people enjoying the warmth

So come and play with me

Your heart gives in and you decide to answer the pleas

Outside you walk

The wind instantly taking your breath away

A small smile appears

Even though you hate the cold

Your heart warms at the beautiful sounds

The singing of the wind

The crushing of the leaves beneath its feet

And the smell of the crisp air
