Death In Winter

A winter death seems natural

Everything else dies and so did you

There was no cheerful color

Of flowers or leaves

To bless the earth with color

To give false cheer

To the gloomy day you left me

There was no sun

To brighten the sky

No birds to sing

Nothing but gloom

As the world mourns

This is an excellent poem. So sad... a lament about the loss of a dear one - something I can relate to very well. My dear friend died in the summer, but the world also mourned... Very well-written!

Kind regards
Nicolette
