You could call it winter — Nicholas Harman

The frost works its way across the tree branch
It tunnels its way into every nook and cranny
Infecting everything it touches with its chilling voice
The song it sings tells the tale of a long gone summer
A time where icy cold did not plague the world with its white hands
The frost is like a tiger as it hunts down the
Warm embers of resilience
Soon there is nothing left but a land of eternal cold
You could call it winter
