I'm a little late to the party, but seeing as how it's my birthday and I am sitting here listening to the wind, I am in the mood to write a poem.
It has been many years, but here I go......
Winters Past
The wind whispers to me, calling my name
Moaning a tune from long forgotten games
When my mind once ran free to believe what it wanted
As a child in the landscape of winter once haunted
The snow was my castle, icicles my swords
To fight off the dragons that threatened the Lords
As snowflakes fell lazily out of the sky
I created a world where the brave do not die
The battleground littered with snowballs and laughter
I claim my throne to rule, for here-ever-after
Brought back with a bang, as the windows rattle
I look out at the leaves caught in a winter battle
For but only a moment I think I can see
A knight in the middle nodding at me
Laughing out loud, I run out in my yard
A middle-aged woman who often tries hard
To forget the kingdom always waiting for me
Every Winter it's there, if I only believe
