Fall’s Reminder Notice

Posted on December 9, 2016December 9, 2016 by Leonas Lines

Cold air pushed out

Melting snow turns to puddles

Fall tells Winter “Leave!”

Issues a reminder notice

“Winter begins December 21st”

I really love this, Leona, because I keep looking at the calendar, wondering if I need to avoid using “winter” in my poems till it’s official, haha! 🙂
