Chill whispers to me
through the fallen forest leaves
Winter’s time is hereSee last touch of bright colors
Snow soon falls for a cover-CJ Holm

The last rose of autumn
displays with fierce red fever
with a tinge of frost-CJ Holm

When I was young, my grandmother had an old wood burning stove that she would use to heat the kitchen and make meals. She would get up early on cold winter mornings to stir the ashes and rekindle the fire. Once started, it would only take a few minutes for grandma and the fire to bring the house back to life.
Ash colored embers
Stoked deep in smoldering warmth
Gave our morning life-Clarence Holm

grey covers my soul
when winters edge slices through
last colors of fall2)
Mocking Jays cover-
rebellions call to alarm
changes color scene3)
in endless cover
Gnowee colors the night sky
ceaseless mourning son4)
shifting sound color
turns night’s darkness into sight
when fear seeks cover5)
culture of cover
kept race in lines of color
protest lives matters-Clarence Holm
