Poem depicting winter as a wicked witch intent on destroying the beauty of nature.
THE BLACK WIDOW
Image via Wikipedia
The gilt wood wails as acrid fumes coil
and a carbon clad crone intones words fell
that bludgeon the light; all mirth to despoil.
Her feline eyes stalk where the glories dwell.
Her tresses are asps that spurt green malice
upon the trees noble whose prize robes tumble.
Into coma they sink when drains her chalice
At victory she cackles; rock and stone rumble
