Sweet smelling rain turns to white flakes of cold Falling so slowly, someone young might turn old. The dirt turns to ice, frozen mud on the ground, You can’t hear a thing, for snow absorbs sound. Deadly quiet, not a person in sight, Bright as the day are the white blanket nights. So cold I fear my breath, my very words Will turn to hard ice and plummet downwards To land on the pavement with loud, piercing sounds And shatter to pieces on hard frozen ground. And they’ll just walk by, while my words lay there, dead I should have just left them to swim in my head. Winter, it’s just such a traitorous thing Oh, all the coldness and glumness it brings. But, for some reason, when green turns to white, I can’t help but feel so strangely bright. For I know that tomorrow a new day will come, It’ll be as wet as yesterday was. But when enough tomorrows finally pass, The snow, it will melt, finally, at last! Then hints of green will begin to arrive And I’ll begin to feel very alive, Just like the flowers, all starting to bloom And the warm rain that falls to melt away gloom. Winter is here, but I’m not very sad, It will be gone, like a teenager’s fad. |

I haven't written very many poems in my day, but I thought this one would be a fine first divination.
I don't really like winter, because I don't like being cold. One day, it was especially bad, so I decided to write about it. That's really all I have to say. Enjoy. ^.^ P.S. I don't thing my grammar is spot on, but oh, well. What's done is done. O.o |

 reports, 1d 19h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |
