Spring to Winter

The sun hides behind the buildings
     on the top of the hill
Looking into the valley below
     you can see the shadow
     taking over the land
The leafless trees turn dark
     leaving a distinct break between night and day.
Orange tints begin to cover the
     few trees the sun still shines on.

Snow melted throughout the day,
But now each step must be taken with care
     so you don't slip
     on the newly formed ice. 
The torn up grass that was mud
     now crunches beneath your feet
Deep breaths from climbing up the hill
     can now be seen
     as the chill seeps into the land.

But it was all expected
And so you continue on
Watching your breath
     carry out in front of you.
Watching the orange
     fade out of the valley
And waiting for the warmth
     to come back again.
