Frost

The morning frost lay on the ground

Like diamonds sparkling bright

Little gems of water blink

Beneath the pale sunlight.


It crunches below the running feet

Of children off to school

And melts under the warming sun

In tiny little pools.


There for a moment, then it’s gone

It fades in light of day

It brings the cold and makes us know

That winters on its way.

That is lovely... and makes me feel kind of nostaligic.
