Winter winds whistling whipping through your hair
circling diving screaming howling in the air
banshees wailing with a knife-sharp scream
shattering hope and song and dream
tearing through your skin and leaving you raw
gathering the world in their sharp-toothed maw
chill pervades your very soul
terror and tremors swallow you whole
skeleton-thin you feel alone
and then the phantoms start to moan
fear turns to sorrow and darkness and cold
ghosts gather round you as your soul starts to mold
decaying and desiccated rotting death
why should you bother to take another breath
and then the snow starts to fall and blankets the ground
softly sighing and whispering ‘round
gentle as moondust it falls on your skin
as you are slowly reborn again
circling diving screaming howling in the air
banshees wailing with a knife-sharp scream
shattering hope and song and dream
tearing through your skin and leaving you raw
gathering the world in their sharp-toothed maw
chill pervades your very soul
terror and tremors swallow you whole
skeleton-thin you feel alone
and then the phantoms start to moan
fear turns to sorrow and darkness and cold
ghosts gather round you as your soul starts to mold
decaying and desiccated rotting death
why should you bother to take another breath
and then the snow starts to fall and blankets the ground
softly sighing and whispering ‘round
gentle as moondust it falls on your skin
as you are slowly reborn again

I usually don't really premeditate what I write, I just sit down and start typing. I also make very few revisions, if any. (So if it's terrible, that's why XD)
Anyway. Ever feel suddenly alone and afraid when you look outside at wintertime? Everything looks bleak and bare. Then you see a cardinal fly by or a snowflake fall and your mood shifts to contentment and wonder. I suppose it's our primordial fear of cold giving way gradually to a feeling of safety, now that we have warm houses and hot cocoa, so we can begin to appreciate the wonder of winter instead of shrinking from it. I really talk too much once I get started, don't I?
Oh and I almost forgot, this is also a submission for this contest: Contest 15 - Myths in Winter - About 3 weeks left!
